Best Answer

From the middle up shoud be at a 1/2 inch. Thats the top part of the chain in the little hole in the upper middle of the outter primary. Put your index on the bottom of the chain and lift up should be around 1/2 inch slack or lash. Too much will hit top of primary to little (too tight) with grind the adjustment shoe off. Hope this helps.

Hypothetically If there was perfect chain that had no weak links and was only able to hold 1000 pounds and a weight was added til the point where the chain broke how would it know where to break?

The topmost link would break, as it needs to hold the weight of the weight itself plus all the chain links below it. Thus this topmost link reaches the 1000-pound limit before all the others.
