Hi. Ok this may sound like a dumb question and maybe it is but Ive heard so many stories from friends that know zip about chainsaws that I thought Id ask the Pros..
Soooooo How tight should the chain be?
Ive heard tight is good, no sag. should be kinda hard to pull around the bar but not bind,that I can do . I have mine tighted up pretty tight, I can pull the chain down and see the bottom of the drive links but thats pulling pretty hard,,,
I have heard a dime should fit between the edge of the chain and the bar. but is that pulling down hard?
Thanks
