Drive Chain Inspection (cont.)
SERVICE MAINTENANCE,
LUBRICATION AND
ADJUSTMENTS (cont.)
NOTICE! Excessive chain slack may allow the
drive chain to damage the engine cases.
Inspect the drive chain for damaged rollers, dry
or rusted links, excessive wear, kinked or binding
links, or loose pins.
If the drive chain has damaged rollers, loose pins,
or kinks that cannot be freed the chain should be
replaced. Lubricate the drive chain if it appears to
be dry or shows signs of rust. Lubricate any
kinked or binding links and work them free. Adjust
chain slack if needed (see “Replacing the Drive
Chain” immediately following).
