S4R Chain adjustment

YoungDucS4R · 11-Jun-2005, 10:54

Can anyone advise where to purchase the C spanner tool required for adjusting S4R chain tension

The screwdriver and hammer method just wont do!!

Best option is to try and pick up a 748/9** toolkit, they are often on eBay. Trouble is that you then have to find somewhere to store it!!

Like when i traded in my 748s the c spanner 'fell out of the tool kit' before i traded it in oooopss

Watching with interest...im not a tea leaf like lee so (stupidly !) left my c spanner in my 916 toolkit

Coudl do with a decent one as youd still need an extension bar to do a good job...

Maybe another project for one of the club's tool-makers?

Moi a tea leaf? hehe i forgot to put it in honest offficer

I have seen em some where, adjustable ones.

I still wonder why one wasn't supplied do they not want us to adjust the chain, i heard it was to do with the torqueing down of the 2 pinch bolts correctly, to tight and the bearings suffer
