My chain is loose and making a "clacking" noise when I ride it. I need to tighten the chain, but don't know how to do it. Please help by showing me how to tighten the chain.
Fist you have to jack the rear end up then loosen the two pinch bolts on the bearing housing. the housing will be right in the centre of the axel. you hve to check your sprockets to make sure theyre still in good shape. like no teeth missing or rounded teeth. if there is replace the chain and sprockets.if there good just have to turn the housing to tighten up the chain. leave a little bit of slack, about 1/2 inch. check slack by sitting on it and check the play in it.

I had a few chain driven polaris atv's they tension when weight is on the quad, the rear arm pivots and applies tension to the chain , other then that there should just be guides for the chain. If the chain is still loose with operator weight the chain may have play in the pins and need replaced.

Drive chain adjustment on a snomobile is easy.on the side of chaincase there is a bolt sticking out with a jam nut,loosen jam nut and tighten the bolt clockwise by HAND only then when it doesnt turn in anymore back out 1 turn and tighten up jam nut without turning bolt
