GUIDE BAR AND DIAMOND CHAIN INSTALLATION

STEP 5

Make sure all the drive links are inside the guide bar groove then lift the bar nose and tension the chain by turning the screw clockwise.

STEP 6

If the chain is too loose, it could come off the bar, or it will allow the drive sprocket to spin without turning the chain, which can chew up the chain drive links. If the chain is too tight, a lot of the saw’s power goes into turning the chain rather than into the cut. In extreme over-tightened cases, the saw may not be able to turn the chain at all. In addition, damage can occur to the bar nose and premature stretch may occur. See Note 1.

3/4" (18 mm)**

**As measured without pulling downward (eg. hanging by gravity)

STEP 7

All chains have a tendency to stretch when used. Diamond chains stretch more than wood cutting chains because of the abrasive materials they are cutting. When a chain stretches to a point where the drive links are hanging approximately 1/2”

(12 mm) to 3/4” (18 mm)** below the bar, it’s time to tension the chain. See Note 2.

STEP 8

Before cutting, check for proper tension by pulling the chain around the bar by hand. If you cannot easily pull by hand, the chain is too tight and needs to be loosened a little. See Note 3.
