Kobalt KPS 80-06 User Manual page 16

CARE AND MAINTENANCE
• Using a screwdriver on the tension adjustment screw,
turn clockwise.
• Turn clockwise until there is enough play that the
chain can be pulled away from the bar, but not so
much that the runners can be pulled out of the bar.
• Once you have the correct tension, fully tighten the
locking knob.
Note: Chains stretch with use. Check tension often.
Never tension a warm chain before storing, as chains
shrink when cool. This can damage chain, bar and
saw.
