screw (2) clockwise until the following points
apply:

The chain fits snugly against the underside
of the bar.
–
The chain can still be pulled easily along the
bar with two fingers.
► If the chain can no longer be pulled along the
bar by hand: Turn the tensioning screw (2)
counterclockwise until the chain can be pulled
easily along the bar with two fingers.

nuts (1) firmly.

the closed position: Raise the grip until it is
vertical.
