CHAIN TENSION ADJUSTMENT

Drive chains equipped with a spring loaded idler
are self-adjusting. The only adjustment is to shorten
chain if wear stretches chain and reduces spring
tension. Check idler pivot periodically to ensure they
rotate freely.

Interplant push row unit drive chain adjustment is
made by loosening idler sprocket mounting hardware
and sliding sprockets in slotted mounting holes.

Additional chain links are in the storage box inside
wheel module.

See “Wrap Spring Wrench Assembly” in Lubrication
of this section for additional information.
