I'm trying to help a neighbor. Is there a way to tighten reel drive chain(key 2) other than utilizing an offset chain link to remove a link? Thanks,Jim

From the backside of the machine, up under the tin. There is
a 5/16 bolt. Loosen the bolt and you should be able to "cam"
the sprocket to tighten the chain. I hope this is clear
enough to get through what I'm trying to say. Good luck.
 
Yes, Brendan is right on, its a 5 minute job. Wish I was as smart as TxJim to ask when my chain started to get slack in it. I went to the trouble of taking a half link out as TxJim was proposing!
