DRIVE CHAIN IDLERS
Expeller Drive Chain Idler
The expeller drive chain is tensioned with an adjustable sprocket
Idler. The chain is properly tensioned when the chain can be deflected
1/2" to 3/4" (13-19 mm) with hand pressure.
NOTE: If an Idler fails to maintain proper tension, replace the
worn chain.
Auger Drive Chain Idlers
The jackshaft and auger drive chain
tighteners are spring loaded.
Use the eye bolt adjustment to achieve
a spring length of 9-1/2" on the initial
reduction auger drive chain.
The auger final drive chain tension
device uses an eye bolt, and S-hook to
accomplish adjustment. With the auger
in its lowest position, use the eye bolt to
achieve a spring length of 13-1/2" to 15"
on the final drive chain for obtaining the
specified tension.
NOTE: If an Idler fails to maintain
proper tension, replace the worn chain.
