Adjustments

Flywheel /Chain Adjustment

Adjustment to the chain should only be made if the chain is too loose or too tight. Over tightening the chain will
result in chain breakage or reduction in life of the chain, leaving the chain too loose will result in the chain
coming off the sprocket.
Loosen the nuts on the sides of the flywheel.
Loosen the lock nuts on the chain adjust screws.
Tighten or loosen both chain adjust screws equally.
Slowly turn the crank while keeping your fingers away from the
chain.
Adjust the chain tension so the chain falls smoothly onto the
sprockets and does not pop. Too tight or too loose will make the
chain pop or jump as it goes over the teeth of the sprockets.
Align the chain to the sprockets by adjusting the angle of the
flywheel so the chain runs smoothly over the teeth of the sprockets.
