Chain Inspection, Installation and Adjustment
1. Clean and Inspect chain and chain sprocket for wear.
NOTE:
To clean the chain, remove the chain from the ATV, dip it in solvent, and clean out as
much dirt as possible. Take the chain out of the solvent and dry it. Immediately lubricate the
chain to prevent rust.
2. If sprockets are worn, replace sprockets and chain as a set.
3. Replace guards if damaged.
4. Slide the pin portion of the master link(3) in to each end of chain to be connected.
5. Slide the side plate(2) portion of the master link on to the pins.
6. Slide the retaining clip(1) on to the pins until clip snaps securely in to place.
CAUTION:
The master link should be installed with the open end of the retaining clip (1)
facing away from direction of chain rotation (4).
7. Turn the chain adjuster to obtain 1/4’’ (6mm) to 3/8’’ (10mm) chain flex. To tighten the
chain, turn the chain adjuster clockwise. To loosen the chain, turn the chain adjuster count
clockwise and push the rear axle forward.
