Installation
Make sure that the shafts carrying sprockets are
parallel. Align the sprockets exactly on the
shafts. Check with a string held against the sides
of the sprocket face. Improper alignment of
shaft/sprocket will cause abnormal wear on the
chain link plates and on the sides of the sprocket
teeth. Check whether the sprocket and shaft
operate freely.

The chain must be clean and free from grit and

dirt. The chain should articulate freely. Ensure
that the chain parts are not damaged.

After removing the connecting link wrap the chain around the sprocket, bringing the free ends together on
one sprocket. Insert the pins of the connecting link into the end links of the chain, install the loose plate
and then fix the spring clip. The open end of the spring clip should be facing the direction opposite to the
direction of rotation.

Adjust the tension in the chain by moving the rear

wheel using the adjuster provided. To check the
chain tension turn the wheel to tighten the upper
strand of the chain, then check the free up and
down movement in the bottom strand of the chain.
A free play up and down of 1/2” to 3/4” is
recommended, and should be adjusted with a
rider on the machine.

Check again and ensure that the wheel shaft is

parallel to the gear sprocket shaft.

The drive must have adequate clearance. When the chain case is used, the drive must be positioned
correctly so that there is no obstruction in the path of the chain

10
Maintenance
The chain should be lubricated at frequent intervals. Even under the best operating conditions it is
advisable to clean the chain every 3000 km. The frequency of cleaning should be increased in case there is
no chain guard.

The roller chain may be cleaned by washing in

kerosene. Articulate or agitate the chain to
ensure penetration of kerosene and a thorough
flushing of the pin bushing areas. Drain off the
excess kerosene and then soak the chain in SAE
40 oil to restore the internal lubrication. Hang the
chain to drain off all the excess lubricant. If
necessary, gently wipe the outside of the chain to
remove excess oil which will only attract dust and
dirts.

Similarly, clean sprockets with kerosene and inspect them for wear and corrosion. Refit the chain on the
sprocket taking care that steps described earlier are followed.

Recommendations
Never insert a new link in a chain that has been appreciably elongated by wear. The pitch of the new link will
be shorted than that of other links, and the resulting shock each time the link engages the sprocket will
soon destroy the chain.

Do not install a new chain on a badly worn out sprocket. A few hours of operation under such a condition
will do more damage to the chain than months of normal use.

?
Hot, molten grease flows into the annular gaps and solidifies on cooing
?
Re-lubrication in the same way lubrication as is done at the factory
?
Re-lubrication can be done for six chains at a time
?

Customer Benefits
Low noise levels
?
Smooth riding conditions
?
