(1) Installation requirements
① Select the correct drive sprocket model according to the vehicle specifications.
② Check the condition of the location where the drive sprocket is installed (gearbox output countershaft, hub, etc.) if it is not in good condition; otherwise, the relevant parts must be repaired or replaced.
③ Install the driving and driven sprockets in place using the correct method, and tighten the fasteners to achieve the specified torque requirements.
④ After installing the drive chain and adjusting the tension, check whether the chain and sprocket fit smoothly and are coplanar, and whether there is any interference with the chain cover.
(2) Precautions:
① The driven sprocket should have anti-loosening measures.
② After the driven sprocket is installed, the rear wheel axle should be aligned using the adjuster and the screed on the rear sprocket (also called the rear wheel fork). This will prevent the rear wheel from running off-center and also avoid premature wear of the sprocket and chain.
③ It is best to replace the sprocket and chain at the same time. Replacing only one of them will increase the wear and tear on both.
④ Because the driving sprocket has a high rotational speed and fewer teeth, it wears faster than the driven sprocket under the same conditions, which is normal.
⑤ The drive chain and transmission should be cleaned and lubricated regularly.SprocketsIn order to extend its service life.
