CHAIN ADJUSTMENTS (see figure 9)

1.Remove guards.

2.Inspect chain and sprockets for wear, lubrication and tension. Replace if badly worn or damaged. CHAIN TENSION AND ALIGNMENT (see figure 9)

3.Install new chain, locating keeper clip of chain connecting link on inboard side of chain.

4.Reinstall bearings onto axle and assemble bearing mounting screws. Leave screws only partially tightened.

5.Push bearings outward against each rear wheel, fully spreading wheels to both ends of axle.

6.With bearings pressed fully outward against wheels, keeping axle square with engine base, align and tension chain as shown below and slightly tighten front bearing screws first. Then slightly tighten rear bearings. (Note: Tightening front bearing screws first, helps keep chain tight.)

7.Recheck chain alignment, tension and axle squareness. If ok, fully tighten front and then rear bearing screws. Repeat adjust- ment steps if necessary.

8.Check chain tension and roll wheels to be sure there are no excessively tight areas in the chain. Readjust if necessary. A slightly loose chain is better than an over tightened one.

9. Reinstall chain guard and differential guard.

10. Reinstall spark plug wire.

Belt Adjustment: As V-belt wears, adjustments may be required. Adjust by tightening or by loosening clutch cable nut as required. When replacing the belt, the impeller must be removed. See instructions on page 14. See parts list for impeller bolt torque specifications. See figure 10 & 11 for proper belt tension adjustment. If cable cannot be adjusted to provide proper belt tension then belt must be replaced. DO NOT OVER ADJUST.

Chain Lubrication: With machine not running, oil chain using general S.A.E. 30 weight oil every 25 hours or as

needed. Chain oiling hole is located in rear axle cover. Note: Be sure that entire length of chain is properly oiled. Oiling only a few positions in the chain rotation will not properly oil the chain.
