When the chain is worn so much that it is more than 2% longer than
when new, it is no longer safe for use and should be replaced.
Whenever the chain is replaced, inspect both the engine output
pinion and rear sprocket teeth, and replace them if necessary. Worn
sprocket teeth will cause a new chain to wear quickly.
When a part ir worn, replace it with a genuine part for maximum
resistance and safety.
To minimize any chance of the master link coming apart, the master
link clip must be installed with the closed end of the «U» facing in
the direction of the chain rotation.
