Correctly tensioned chain will have a loose lift of 0.2 in
(5 mm) between the sprocket.
Loose lift less than 0.2 in (5 mm) will result in rapid chain
stretching, and will lead to fast sprocket wear. An excessively
loose chain can fall off during operation. Loose chain needs to
be tightened.
While operating, the chain stretches, and the distance
between chain links changes. If the adjustment range is not
enough, the chain should be replaced. Do not shorten the chain
by removing one or more links.
When cleaning chain, check the condition of the rubber
seals between the plates. If the seals are damaged, and two tips
protrude from the chain, the chain requires urgent replacement.
13.7 Adjusting the chain tension
To adjust the chain tension:
1. Loosen six screws (1) that mount motor and CVT
brackets with SNOWDOG’s chassis platform.
2. To loosen the chain you need to move the engine
mount with the motor forward in the direction
of movement; to tension the chain you need to move
the chain tensioning engine mount with the motor
back against the direction of SNOWDOG movement.
3. Check the chain tension. Repeat step 2 if necessary.
4. Tighten six bolts (1) to the engine mounts of the
SNOWDOG chassis platform.
