ADJUSTMENTS

MAIN DRIVE CHAIN ADJUSTMENT

The main drive chain has an automatic tensioning

system that normally does not require adjustment.

As the chain wears, the tensioner advances and

locks the idler in the new position. If the automatic

tension has advanced all the way, it may be reset.

1. Raise the machine and support it on the built in

jack stands. Turn off the engine.

2. Remove the front and side chain covers. Push

down on the spring end of the tensioner to

disengage the locking teeth. Pull the tensioner

forward and lock it in place by setting the bolt in

the locking notch.

3. Rotate the tire to get all the slack out of the top

span of the chain.

4. Loosen the idler bolts and move the idler in the

adjusting slot to remove the slack in the chain.

Tighten the idler bolts.

5. Move the tensioner off the locking notch to

engage the locking teeth.

6. Reinstall the chain covers. Start the engine and

lower the machine. Stop the engine and pin the

jack stands in the operating position.

CHAINS

Tines may drop suddenly. Support the tines when

working underneath them. NOTE: It is normal for

there to be some play in the chain.

WHEEL AND TINE DRIVE CHAIN ADJUSTMENTS

1. Raise the machine and support it on the built in

jack stands. See jack stands section page 19.

Turn off the engine. This will allow one of the

sprockets to turn freely so the idler can take up

the slack.

2. Remove the side chain covers.
3. Tension by loosening the idler bolts and sliding

the idler in the adjusting slot to remove slack

from the drive. Tighten the idler bolts. Replace

chain covers.

NOTE: If there is no more adjustment, the chain

needs to be replaced. See Belt / Chain Replace-

ment Section
4. Start the engine and lower the machine. Stop

the engine and pin the jack stands in the operat-

ing position.
