Two-Stage Snowblower Reduction Chain
The reduction chain should be replaced if, when ad-
justed properly, it can be pulled away from the front
of the reduction sprocket more than 1/2 the height
of a tooth on the sprocket. Running the snow-
blower with a worn chain increases wear on the
sprockets.

the master link. Install the clip on the master link
properly. The closed end of the clip should
