Drive chain slack check
NOTE:
Move the ATV back and forth and find the tight-
est position of the drive chain. Check and/or
adjust the chain slack while it is in this tightest
position.
To check the drive chain slack, all tires must be
touching the ground and there should be no weight
on it. Check the drive chain slack at the position
shown in the illustration Normal slack is approxi-
mately 15–20 mm (0.59–0.79 in). If the slack
exceeds 20 mm (0.79 in), adjust it to specification.

2. Loosen the adjuster locknuts on each
side. To tighten the chain, turn the chain
adjuster clockwise. To loosen the chain,
turn the adjuster counterclockwise and
push the wheel forward. Turn each

swingarm and on each chain adjuster.
