1.Remove battery from chain saw.

2.Place chain saw on a firm surface to check chain tension.

3.Pull chain with light force 1/8" away from bottom of guide bar and release (see Figure 8). If chain lightly snaps back into place, tension is correct. A slight sag (1/16" or less) between chain and bottom of guide bar is acceptable.
