After the concrete has hardened, remove the string from the quick release pins. Attach the chain to one quick release pin with a master link (see Illustration F). Run the chain through the chain sprockets (see Illustration G).
STEP 6
Pull the chain to the second chain bracket leaving approximately four inches of slack (see Illustration G). Do not pull chain tight; a tight chain will interfere with the operation of the operator. Mark the chain where it meets the second quick release pin.
