Adjustment for the chains is provided on the right hand
side by rotation of the hub assemblies which alters the
position of the sprockets. The left side chains are adjusted
by repositioning the upper motor adapter housing which is
mounted on slotted holes for this purpose.
Lubrication of the right hand hub assemblies occurs due to
oil picked up by the chains and sprockets which runs along
the driveshafts and to the bearings.
The left hand driveshaft bearings are lubricated by means
of an oil scraper L which is spring loaded so that it presses
against the inside face of the sprocket. Oil from the face of
the sprocket is collected by the scraper and is directed
through holes into the driveshaft tube. The oil runs the full
length of the tube, lubricating the bearings at both ends.
