Checking chain tension

Make sure that the engine is shut off when checking chain tension.
NOTE
Always loosen clutch cover nuts before turning the chain tension adjuster, otherwise the
clutch cover and tensioner will be damaged.
Chain tension should be checked frequently during work and corrected if necessary.
Tension the chain as tight as possible, but so it can still be pulled easily along the bar by
hand.

Chain lubrication test

Hold the chain just above a dry surface and open the throttle to half speed for 30 sec-
onds.
A thin line of "thrown" oil should be seen on the dry surface.

Pre cutting test

Familiarize yourself with your chain saw before you start actual cutting.
For this purpose it may be wise to practice by cutting some small logs or limbs several
times.
Do not allow either people or animals into the work area.
Multiple operators - Keep a safe distance between two or more operators when working to-
gether simultaneously.
