rjg854 11,350 #2 Posted December 4, 2019 On one of the idler sprockets, you should see a slot, that's the one you use for tightening the chain. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

troutbum70 857 #4 Posted December 4, 2019 End opposite of the belt pulley, bottom front sprocket. Not a lot of adjustment available, but that's the one. I have a 32 inch and gave it and my K181 in my commando 800 a work out yesterday hi hi. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
moe1965 737 #5 Posted December 4, 2019 My chain was stretched out and I had no more adjustment available. I installed a half link and back up and running. Removing one full link was to much. Just incase you run into the same issue. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
peter lena 8,583 #6 Posted December 4, 2019 ever used lubricant on that auger drive set up ? the wear and play on these is easy to correct and replace. you can look up those chain gears and #40 chain , probably pick them up at a tractor supply . that auger should easily spin by hand when properly set up , making its use a treat. i would also add a SERATED LOCK WASHER on that adjustment slot bolt, to secure its setting . pete Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
