Severe damage to the transmission and drive components can result.
Check the amount of chain slack by moving the vehicle slightly forward to remove slack at
the top side of the chain. At t he 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.
