receive the correct depth gauge setting and bevel for the
depth gauge.

and bevel for the depth gauge.

depth gauge tool.
To tighten the saw chain
WARNING: A saw chain without the correct
tension can come loose from the guide bar
and cause serious injury or death.
The more you use a saw chain the longer it becomes. It
is important to adjust the saw chain regularly.
Do a check of the saw chain tension each time you refill
with chain oil.
Note: A new saw chain has a running-in period during
which you must do a check of the tension more
frequently.
