Disassembling
and Installing
To open the master link (part #7 on the parts list in
the
“Replacement Parts” section) on hand chain in
order to increase or shorten:
To change the length of the
hand chain
, the master
link must be open and hand chain links
added
to
increase the overall length or links
removed
to
decrease the length. This is done as follows:
1. Insert the master link into the vise (Figure 6).
2. Position the link vertically at the edge of the
vise with the level of the separation above the
top edge of the vise jaw (Figure 7).
3. Tighten the vise jaw.
4. Using an adjustable wrench, twist the link
horizontally from front to back (Figure 8). Open
just far enough to insert or remove a second
chain link.
Note:
Chain length is now ready to lengthen or
shorten.
5. Insert or remove the second end link at the
opening in the first end link.
6. Using an adjustable wrench, twist the link
horizontally until the link is in the original closed
position (Figure 9).
Do not push the link inward
from the curved ends. This will distort the link.
Check that the link is closed and free of twist.
7. If installing entire new chain, insert the end of
the hand chain into the groove at the top of the
hand chain wheel (Figure 10). Rotate the hand
chain wheel and pull the chain through.
8. Ensure the separation point of the master link
is closed and both sides well-aligned.
