Loosen the two carrier bolts on the back of the axle. Then loosen the two bolts at the bottom that hold the rear breaks to
the axle bearing housing. Then on the right side of the housing, it looks like you could get a big wrench on those hex
cuts and turn axle upward direction to tighten. I use large channel lock pliers. That will tighten chain because it will
off set housing toward the back of the ATV. I recommend turning axle down first to get the grease fitting that is blocked
by gas reservoir. That is an important grease fitting for axle bearing's. It is an easy job, but tighten carrier bolts
well when finished.

To adjust the primary chain you remove the oval-shaped inspection cover on the chaincase, loosen (don't remove) the 9/16" nut that holds the chain tensioner in place and move the adjuster up or down to adjust chain tension. The chain should have 5/8" to 7/8" of up-and-down play at its tightest point when the motor's cold and 3/8" to 5/8" of play when the motor's hot. To adjust the rear chain, loosen (but don't remove) the axle nut and turn the adjuster nuts (on the ends of the swingarm) in or out an equal number of turns to obtain proper chain tension. The rear chain should have about 1/2" of up-and-down play at its tightest point.
