[QUOTE="Bob Hedgecutter, post: 7821926, member: 164497"] Did the saw come with the bar cover plate fitted- the sheet metal stamping that would fit over the bar studs and cover the tensioner assembly prior to the bar being fitted? If not, you could be bottoming the nuts on the stud threads to give somewhat of a friction fit to set up tension pre starting the saw, but under working conditions the bar is slipping back a touch to produce a loose chain. This is assuming the chain is not bouncing between tight, loose an tight again? [/QUOTE]
