DRIVE CHAIN ADJUSTMENT
The drive chain on the Baileigh 5016 slip roll has been properly adjusted at the factory. Because
of the relatively slow rpm of the drive components, there should be minimal wear on the chain.
To tighten the chain:
1. Disconnect and lockout power to the machine.
2. Loosen the (4) carriage bolts holding the motor assembly to the base.
3. Back off the locking nut on the adjusting bolt.
4. Turn the adjusting bolt clockwise (cw) to tighten the chain tension. (DO NOT
OVERTIGHTEN)
5. Tighten the lock nut.
6. To replace the chain or a sprocket, it may be necessary to block up the motor assembly to
release chain tension.
7. ALWAYS replace the two piece drive guard before running the machine!!
CAUTION:
Before removing the guards make sure that the power to the
machine has been disconnected.
