Long nose pliers

Loctite 290

Straight ended 4mm hex key and extension bar

Parts Required

Pre assembled R0000699 9off loader chains

Étape 1 - Unless otherwise stated

Use loctite 243 on all fasteners

Use Loctite 572 on all threaded pneumatic connections

Pen mark all bolts to show finalised

Étape 2 - 1st stage fix of drive sprockets

Add M8 x 20 kcp grubscrew to each chain drive sprocket. Do not add adhesive at this point

...Warning . Ensure the next step is adhered to. Please read carefully !!!!!!

Align sprocket with faces shown and tighten grubscrew ensuring the

is aligned with the fixing grubscrew .

Repeat for all 8 remaining sprockets

...Sprocket to chain runner alignent is vital for free running of load system. Ensure faces as shown as item 3 are set correctly

Étape 3 - Fit chains

Remove chain joining link from chain assembly and fit chain in position

...Ensure drive shaft does not rotate when fitting chains

It is vital all chains are fitted in the same position, to do this

1 When fitting chain use datum point to align chain paddle

2 Attach chain link joiner

Repeat for all 8 remaining chains

If chains are tight to connect adjust M8 set bolt to reduce tension on chains

Étape 4 - Quality check

Once all chains are fitted a visual check should be performed to confirm alignment . When looking over the length of the table, all chain flights should be inline

Étape 5 - Finalise Sprocket fasteners

It is vital to tension the securing grubscrew for the drive sprockets correctly

Use a straight ended 4mm hex key and extension bar to apply as much tension as possible to the m8 grubscrew

Then add 2 drops of self wicking thread locker to complete the tension process

Étape 6 - Tension chains

Using the M8 adjusting set bolt, set shown gap to the range shown. (30-33mm approx)

This will give a starting position for chain adjustment

Once set , gauge feel of the chains to note any difference in tension between all chains

Check clearance between bottom flights on chains and bottom of arm

Adjust individual chains to match correctly tensioned chains, and ensure all chain flights are clear from bottom arm face

Once set, lock off M8 locking nut
