LIFT CHAIN ADJUSTMENTS 
 
Fig.14 
The Lift Chains for the rear outer reels, No’s 4,5,8,9,10 & 
11,are fitted with chain adjusters that ensure that the 
‘Snubber’ Rollers engage correctly in the catchers. 
Refer to page 21 for the correct sequence of reel 
numbering and the Lift Chain locations. 
 
REELS 4 AND 5 
 
Fig.15 
Before adjusting the Lift Chains on reels  No’s  4 and 5, 
check that the main lift arms work in unison. The chain 
bolts must be level, relative to each other, in the ‘raised’ 
and in the ‘lowered’ positions. 
 
Check that the Cylinder, when fully retracted, measures 
20 1/8 inches from the rod-end Tie Rod Pin to the fixed 
end Pin. 
Adjust the Synchronizer Tie Rod to obtain the correct 
measurement : 
•  Retract the Cylinder. 
•  Back-off the Tie Rod locknuts 
•  Adjust the Tie Rod until the chain bolts are 
‘level’. 
•  Extending the Tie Rod rotates the arms C.W. 
•  Retracting the Tie Rod rotates the arms C.C.W.
