Drive Chain; Drive Chain Cleaning And Oiling; Inspect Drive Chain Slack - HYOSUNG TE 50 B Owner's Manual

The chain may require more frequent adjust-
ment that it is with periodic maintenance
depending upon your riding conditions. Inspect
and lubricate every month. If it becomes neces-
sary to replace the drive chain, we recommend
that you take your vehicle to an authorized
HYOSUNG dealer to have the work done.
You should periodically inspect the drive chain
for the following :
● Loose pins
● Damaged rollers
● Dry or rusted links
● Kinked or binding links
● Excessive wear
Good
If you find anything wrong with the drive chain
condition or adjustment, there is a strong possi-
bility that the sprockets will have some damage
to them also. Inspect the sprockets for the fol-
lowing:
● Excessively worn teeth
● Broken or damaged teeth
● Loose sprocket mounting nut(s)

Clean and oil the chain as follows :
1. Wash the chain with kerosene. Kerosene is a
petroleum product and will provide some lubrica-
tion as well as cleaning action.
2. After thoroughly washing the chain and allow-
ing it do dry, oil the links with a heavy weight
motor oil.
