4.8. CHECKING AND TIGHTENING THE DRIVE CHAIN (Figure 10)
During the operation and under the load, the drive chain stretches, therefore the operator
must check and readjust the chain periodically to prevent excessive wear of the whole chain
drive. The chain must not be set to tight and chain slack should be set 1 to 3 mm. Shorther
chain should allow ±1 mm slack and longer chain ±3 mm. Check the tightness of the chain by
hand, pushing the chain between the chain wheels.
Lubricate the chain using special chain lubrication spray.
