Tighten or loosen the nut for the tightener of the chain to give the chain the correct
tightness. Make sure that the chain runs straight and that the chain is tightened the same
on both sides. If it is not possible to tighten the chain sufficiently the chain must be
replaced.

Tighten the rear axle with 30-44 mm. After tightening you must check that the chain has
the correct tightness.
