Rotor Chain:
The preload tension on this chain can be set using the adjuster pivot arm
mechanism on the left side of the machine directly below the auger shaft
(adjuster “D” in Figure
8). To access this mechanism, open the top left cover. Open the nut from the M16 fixing bolt
and using a spring clamp or a lever bar compress the spring and remove the bolt. Using the
same method as before now compress the spring to approx.
255 mm
. Ensuring that the spring
is seated correctly, replace the M16 bolt and nut in the appropriate position and tighten.
