10. Tighten the saw chain by turning the chain
tensioning screw clockwise with the combination
wrench
. Tighten the saw chain until it does not sag from
below the guide bar, but you can turn it easily by
hand.
11. Hold up the end of the guide bar and tighten the bar
nuts with the combination wrench.
• Examine the chain tension frequently after you
assemble a new saw chain and until the saw
chain has been run-in.

chain tension results in good cutting performance
and a long life.
To reset the chain brake
If the clutch cover is removed accidentally while the
chain brake is locked, the chain brake must be unlocked
so the clutch cover can be assembled without binding to
the clutch drum.
CAUTION: The chain brake spring is under
tension. Use care when resetting the chain
brake.
Note: Do not hold the brake band while attempting to
reset it.
1. Align the notches on the bar tool so that they fit over
the brake rotating link.
