frequently and adjust the chain tension
as required. See CHAIN TENSION sec-
tion.

comes worn or damaged. Use only the

cified in the repair parts list. The cor-
rect replacement bar and chain is also
specified on a decal located on the
chain saw.

place and sharpen individual cutters
on your chain.

position.

NOTE: An adjusting pin and screw is
used to adjust the tension of the chain. It
is very important that the pin located on
the adjusting screw aligns into the lower
hole in the guide bar. Turning the screw
will move the adjustment pin up and
down the screw.
