Chapter 4: Assembly
NOTE: It is possible for the chain to twist a full 360° during this process. Visually check the chain
through open covers at both the ends to make sure that this has not happened.
4. Loosen the adjusting screws in the drive end all the way (towards the tube) and connect the final
chain link.
5. Tighten the chain by turning the adjusting screws clockwise; adjust each side equally to keep the
sprocket shaft square with the housing.
6. Remove chain links if there is not enough travel in the adjusting screw to tighten the chain.
7. Make sure that the sprocket shaft is square to the housing by measuring the shaft position on both
sides of the housing.
8. The chain should be tightened until the paddles are nearly rigid on the chain. The tips of the paddles
should only move 3/4" when grabbed and pulled by hand.
9. Check and re-tension the chain as needed after the system has been trial run while empty. (Refer to
VersaLoop™ Chain – Adjustment, page 35 .)
