DIGGING CHAIN INSTALLATION
1. Slide digging chain under sprocket, with teeth in the correct cutting direction. Properly
installed, the cutting edges of the chain will face forward on the top of the boom and
rearward on the bottom of the boom (see diagram below).
2. Start engine. Push digging boom control lever forward to lower boom onto the chain.
Shut off engine.
3. Wrap chain around boom and sprocket. Install chain master link or link pin.
4. Use boom adjuster screw to tighten chain. Chain should have enough slack to allow
approximately 2" of space between middle of boom and chain when boom and chain are
straight out in a horizontal position.
5. Tighten adjuster screw locknut and 4 boom mounting bolts.
