Chain Tensioner

Image
Inspect the chain. Proper deflection is one inch (25 mm) . Adjust the chain if deflection is incorrect.
  1. Loosen the nut on the chain tensioner .
  2. Raise the tensioner until the correct deflection is attained.
  3. Tighten the nut to 15-18 ft. lbs. (20-24 Nm).
TIP
When the chain has stretched to within 1/8" (3 mm) of the muffler mount bracket on the chassis, replace the chain. Inspect the sprockets as they also wear and often need replacement when the chain is replaced.
