just the tension of the chain. It is very impor-
tant when assembling the bar, that the pin
located on the adjusting screw aligns into a
hole in the bar. Turning the screw will move
the adjustment pin up and down the screw.
Locate this adjustment before you begin
mounting the bar onto the saw. See follow-
ing illustration.
