Recommended Tools: Socket wrench, and screw driver
Chainsaw bars and chains can get wore down, damaged, or broken from normal use. If your chain, bar, or both is damaged or worn down, it's time to replace it. Without a properly working bar and/or chain you're chainsaw won't work properly, causing damage to the chainsaw or injury to you.
*Jack's Safety Tips: Before servicing or repairing any power equipment, disconnect the spark plug. Remember to wear appropriate safety gear to protect against harmful chemicals and debris.

You forgot to mention lining up the tension rod on the clutch cover with the little hole on the bar to be able to tension the chain. To anyone who may have trouble getting their chain tight; if the tension rod isn’t inserted through the little hole on the bar underneath the holes where the cover slides onto, you won’t be able to tension your chain. You line it up and then pull your bar forward and lifting up, turn the screw and it rod works it’s way up the bolt that it is screwed onto and that movement causes the bar to go forward

sorry brother, but that chain looks way too tight - your idea of 'moves easily' is a lot different than mine. just sayin'
