What’s the best way to tighten a chainsaw chain?

If you want to properly tighten a chainsaw chain, remember the following steps. Loosen the bar nuts so you can easily adjust the chain tension screw. While pulling up on the tip of the bar, adjust the chain so it doesn’t sag and it holds itself to the bottom of the bar. I like to pull on the chain for a reference.

When is it time to tighten a chainsaw chain?

If the chain’s drive links are disengaged from the guide bar when pulled, then it’s time to tighten it up. Chainsaw chains can also be overtightened. There should be at least a little play in the chain, just not enough for the drive links to leave the guide bar. Tightening a chainsaw chain too tightly risks breaking it during operation.

What kind of wrench do you use to adjust a chainsaw?

Most chainsaws come with “scwrench” (screwdriver/wrench) that matches their side plate nut and tension adjustment screw size. This will give the guide bar and chain the room they need to be adjusted. The brakes of some chainsaws are attached directly to the side panel.
