Hi I am wondering what is the tension the drive chain on my KS 66 front mount blower be. I turn the drive shaft and see the chain is not touching the sprocket till I turn the shaft about 1-2 inch. Should chain be loose while disengaged or should it be on the sprocket. Thanks for any advice and pics of what chain tension should be.
Thanks
Gilles

I have the 72" blower so I don't know if it's the exact same, but once I hit the end of my adjuster I removed the half link in the chain and reset the adjuster.

Once I reach the end of my adjuster again, I'll remove a full link and insert the half link again and repeat.

Ok, here is what I meant. The idle sprocket is not touching the chain unless I turn it a bit. Is this normal or is it too loose. Thanks for any help.

Ok, went to the dealer to get my answers. Jason, sorry I did not explain it in my question and revised it. If your blower is a Kioti KS72 then it is basically the same other than the size. Thanks for your input.
