4.3 Axuste da tensión da cadea
A tensión correcta da cadea é crucial para un funcionamento seguro e eficiente.
- With the chain cover retaining nuts slightly loose, use the chain tensioning screw (often a red dial or screw on the side) to adjust the chain tension.
- The chain should be snug against the guide bar, but still able to be pulled freely by hand. There should be no sag on the underside of the guide bar.
- Once the tension is correct, fully tighten the chain cover retaining nuts.

4.4 Encher o depósito de aceite da cadea
The automatic lubrication system requires chain oil for proper function.
- Locate the oil filler cap on the chain saw body.
- Unscrew the cap and fill the reservoir with appropriate chain and bar oil. Do not use motor oil or waste oil.
- Coloque a tapa de forma segura.
