Keith Posted July 12, 2006 Share Posted July 12, 2006 I just changed my chain (installed a DID ZVM); the instructions said to stake/crush/smash/whatever the pin until the diameter of the staked part was between 0.216 and 0.227 (I believe I'm remembering that correctly). The packaging for your chain should have similar information. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keith Posted July 12, 2006 Share Posted July 12, 2006 Here is the manual page: Ah, that's where I got the numbers; the manual, not the chain instructions. I see I nearly remembered the DID numbers correctly... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
