SETTING UP INSTRUCTIONS
8. Using a funnel, fill the chaincase with 8
ounces of Arctic Chainlube, which is located
in the toolbox. Lubricant level is to be at the
point of overflowing in the check plug hole,

carefully top up with Arctic Chainlube. Wipe
any chainlube that may have spilled.

CAUTION
e
Make sure the chaincase cover and gasket are
sealing properly against the chaincase backing
plate. Chainlube will leak if an improper seal
exists and damage will occur resulting in
component failure when operated.
9. Install the rubber filler plug and the check
plug with a short screwdriver. Check plug
must be adequately tightened to prevent
chainlube leakage. Lubricate the eccentric
bearing with low-temperature grease (Texaco
2346 EP or equivalent).
