FRAME AND WHEELS
CHECKING THE WEAR OF CHAIN, PINION AND SPROCKET
Proceed as follows:
- Fully stretch the chain with the adjusting screws.
- Mark 20 chain links.
- measure the distance “A” between 1st pin center and 21 st pin center.
Check the pinion damages or wear and replace it should the wear degree be
as the one shown in gure.
: Misalignment of the wheel will result in abnormal wear and may result in
an unsafe riding condition.
: In muddy and wet conditions, mud sticks to the chain and sprockets re-
sulting in an overtight chain. The pinion, the chain, and the rear sprocket wheel
wear increases when running on muddy ground.
