Chain Tensioner

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).

NOTE:

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.
