10. Remove all slack from the chain by turning the chain
tensioner screw clockwise until the chain seats snugly
against the bar with the drive links in the bar groove
(Fig. 12).
NOTE: The chain is correctly tensioned when there is no
sag on the underside of the guide bar; the chain is snug,
but can be rotated by hand without binding. For more
information on chain tensioning, see the maintenance
section beginning on pg. 12.

NOTE: If the chain is too tight, it will not rotate. Loosen the
end cover nut slightly and turn the chain tensioner
1/4 turn counterclockwise. Lift the tip of the guide bar up
and retighten the end cover nut. Ensure that the chain can
be rotated by hand without binding.
NOTE: A new chain tends to stretch; check the chain
tension frequently, and adjust tension as required.

CAUTION!
• Before starting the saw, remove the oil tank cap and add bar
& chain oil to the top of the oil level window (Fig. 14). One
minute of use will consume approximately 0.15 fl oz (4 ml) of
oil. Refill when the oil level drops to 1/4 of a tank.
NOTE: Your electric pole chain saw is equipped with an
automatic oil pump for bar and chain oiling. You must add
bar and chain oil or your pole chain saw will not function.
