NO tools needed to clean, adjust or even replace a chain.

The cover comes off with a big hand knob with a torque limiter on tightening, and the chain and guide loosen/tighten/come off and on with one hand knob.

I leave the Allen wrenches in the tool box.

Anything smaller, I use the big loppers. Fantastic for the biceps. The only gunshow I attend is the one I give.
