(ET) Snowblower chain tension
Well, after this epic snowbower run, I noticed that I could hear a
"scratch scratch" when the blower was spinning down. And there was a bit
of vibration.
Looked at the chain from the side and it looks to be a bit slack at
rest. Might be the cause, not sure if I stretched the chain or
something. The auger turns smoothly and when I hop off and watch it spin
down I don't see any wobble or feel any vibration.
So how much slack should be in the chain assembly? Any? Bit? I believe
it can be adjusted with that bolt on the left side with the spring,
anyone know the best way to do it?
Or should I swap the chain at the end of the season?
