MAINTENANCE
Chain Tension
To adjust the Transmission Chain, loosen the 5/8" Idle
Axle Bolt and then use the Clevis Bolt to obtain about
1/8" -1/4" sag. Re-tighten the Axle Bolt. Be careful not to
over-tighten this chain. See Figure 4-4.
Adjust the chain between the Front Roller and
Transmission to have approximately 2" of total deflection.
See Figures 4-4 and 4-5.
NOTE
The Vertical chain drive for the optional Seed Box
Agitator should be adjusted so both spans of chain are
almost taut. Move the Chain Tension Bar on the inside of
the Transmission as required.
