People do not often read manuals of the tools they are going to use.
Case study: Today we have autofocus cameras because people did not read the camera manuals. Engineers designing the next generation of cameras evaluated the pictures from consumers and noticed that most were NOT in focus. The number one consumer problem that needed to be solved was the inability to properly focus a camera. So the engineers worked on many different types of autofocus systems that are in the cameras both YOU and I use. You might say it was not the manufacturers problem. But they took responsibility for every aspect of their product and today we have much better products. Did you read your camera manual?
Number one problem for low use chain saw consumers - chain tension. You guys can accept it or not, that's your choice. We took it on as our problem and designed a bar, because thats as far as we can contribute to the market. Husky and Stihl took it on as their problem and now YOU have "side tensioning" systems on the chain saws that are much easier (for the pros like you guys) than tensioning from the front of the chain saw.
For most of you tensioning a chain is second nature, think of the fun I had standing next to the guys cutting firewood who don't understand how to tension a chain saw.
