The Ego CS1800 56V chainsaw suffers from a poor tension mechanism. This simple adapter, along with a 5mm screw (20mm length), 5mm washer and 5mm hex nut, is a “drop in place” fix. The only modification to the cover is to drill a hole for the screw to pass through. The screw stops the rotation of the tensioner cam (eccentric gear).
Update-1 (1/9/25): v103 add a small pilot hole, if you need to push the nut out. Also switching to left hand (LH) thread nut/screw, will fix the reverse operation issue (e.g. turning the screw clockwise, will result in a tighter chain). LH hardware from Amazon: 1) screw ASIN B074FF8TQM, and 2) nuts ASIN B09CTQ67XT.
