1. Tighten all nuts using a number 4 Allen key. 2. Ensure the sprocket is straight and tight. 3. Make sure that the shear pin clamp is NOT TO TIGHT. This clamp sits over the shear pins, the shear pin sprocket and the shear pin collar. The clamp must not be so tight that it grips the collar and the sprocket that they cannot move independently. This is a common problem causing chains to break often. The clamp is only there to hold the shear pins in place. IF IT IS TOO TIGHT THE SHEAR PINS WILL NOT SHEAR AND THE CHAIN WILL BREAK INSTEAD. 4. Use only 2 or 3 shear pins. 4 is usually too many. 5. Check for stones and debris. 6. Check teeth on sprocket for wear. 7. Wipe down the drive unit with Q20 oil and grease regularly. Remove any rust.
