Chain Care - BLADEZ ION 450 Handbook

CHAIN CARE

Proper chain care will increase the life and improve performance of your Power Board.
Always keep the chain lubricated and tightened to proper tension.
Lubrication
Always keep the chain lubricated with a good chain spray or grease (not chain wax). If
the chain is allowed to run dry for a prolonged period of time it will fail, and the life of the
chain is severely shortened.
Chain Adjustment
The chain on the ION 450 may need to be adjusted from time to time. The chain should
be tight enough not to skip, but have a little bit of play. If you feel your chain skipping or
make a popping noise, adjust the tension immediately.
wheels. The wheels are actually two wheel
halves (split rim) bolted together to make it
easier to remove and replace the tires and
tubes. CAUTION: Empty all air from the tire
prior to loosening the bolts to split the rim
as the split rim is under considerable
pressure while the tire is inflated.
Tire wear will vary based on rider weight,
riding conditions and care. Replacement
tires and tubes can be obtained at your
local Bladez dealer, through motorcycle
shops, from the Bladez website at
