It is very important to note when breaking chains #520 and higher that 
the breaking tip can potentially snap if the existing chain pin is not 
ground flush to the face of the chain body. In the event that the chain is 
not properly prepared for breaking we are unable to provide replacement 
pins under the BlueSpot Tools lifetime guarantee.

1.  To break the chain you must first grind the existing rivet down as stated  

 

above (for chains #520 and higher). This is the most important step of the  

 

whole process in order to achieve a successful outcome.
2.  Prepare the tool as instructed in fig 2. 
3.  Select the breaking tip to be used with the chain (fig 2.3) and proceed to    

remove the push bolt from the breaker body.  Place the spring (fig 2.2) over    

the breaking tip and then into the alignment bolt (fig 2.1) followed by the  

 

push bolt (fig 2.4) as shown above in fig 2.

NOTE

When using the smallest tip in the set (2.2mm) you must utilise the upper and lower 

guides so that you don’t damage the breaking tip. The 2.2mm tip should be used with 

cam chains, 2.9mm pin #25 or #35 chain and 3.8mm pin for most motorcycle chains. 
4.  Please make sure that the breaking tip is withdrawn a minimum of 2mm into  

  the alignment bolt. 
5.  Put the body of the breaker over the chain and begin to wind the push bolt    

through the chain link pin. The existing chain link pin will drop from the  

 

bottom of the tool.
