Maintenance
Chain Tension
Check the amount of chain slack by moving
the vehicle slightly forward to remove slack
at the top side of the chain. At the center
point of the top side of the chain there should
be 1/4"-3/8" (6-9 mm) deflection.
Use the procedure on the following page if
the chain needs adjustment.
NOTE: The chain has a press-on master link. A
chain tool must be used if it's necessary
to remove the chain for service.
CAUTION
Never adjust or operate the vehicle with the rear drive chain too loose or too tight. Severe damage
to the transmission and drive components can result.
