21.1.1 Check chain tension.
Chain tension is set for a 3/8" deflection in
chain when squeezed together.
Chain tension adjustment is accomplished
by adjusting chain tension nut (
4
) on a
threaded stud. This moves ED250 operator
toward or away from spindle drive,
loosening or tightening chain.
21.1.2 Chain tension adjustment
procedure.
1. Loosen four 1/4" x 5/8" FHCS (
4
) and
three BHSCS (
1
) that secure operator to
spacer plate (Fig. 21.1.1).
2. Loosen both 3/8" hex nuts (
3
) on
threaded stud (Fig. 21.1.2).
3. Adjust chain tension nut
(4
) CCW to
tighten chain or CW to loosen chain until
3/8" deflection in chain when squeezed
together (Fig. 21.1.3).
4. Tighten both 3/8" nuts (
3
) against
gearbox side (Fig. 21.1.4).
5. Retighten operator mounting screws
loosened in step 1 to secure operator
against spacer plate.
