watching the chain. Be sure that the rear wheel is turning smoothly
and the chain does not try to run off the rear sprocket in either direc-
tion.
Test the brake adjustment to be sure it is operating properly and make
any necessary adjustments.
500CD, 650CD, 750CD AND 900CD
SERIES SCOOTERS
Adjusting the chain tension is performed
by moving the motor back and forth within
the motor plate.
Loosen the three 5mm Allen bolts
that hold the motor and motor
guard to the motor plate. (Ref Pho-
tos A, B, C)
Twist the motor (counter-clockwise
to tighten the chain, clockwise to
loosen the chain) to adjust the
chain. Please note that a slight ro-
tation of the motor will dramatically
effect the chain tension.
When proper chain tension of 5-
6mm (about 1/4”) of up and down
movement is achieved tighten the
three 5mm motor bolts.
Do not ride the
scooter in order to check the chain
adjustment. It is far easier and safer to
check the chain adjustment as described
above. If the chain does run off the rear
sprocket during the test, then further
adjustments are necessary.
NOTE ON CHAIN LUBRICATION:
To
help maintain both the performance and
longevity of the chain, be sure to lubri-
cate it at least once a month using any
quality bicycle chain lube. While lubricat-
ing the chain take time to inspect it for
any damage and for proper chain tension.
