The chain tensioner resides under the rear cogset and provides
light return spring tension that assists with guiding the chain
during the swing-gate shifting action.
The chain tensioner must move freely for proper operation.
Periodically check for ‘return’ spring action by applying light
pressure down on the pulley wheel cage.
Lubrication can be performed with a lightweight lubricant on the
various pivot points of the chain tensioner. If spring action
appears stunted and lubrication does not help, a visit to an
authorized Shift-E service center is in order.
