Drive chain cleaning and lubrication
The drive chain is equipped with rubber O-
rings between the chain plates. Steam
cleaning, high-pressure washes, and certain
solvents can damage these O-rings. Use
only kerosene to clean the drive chain. Wipe
it dry, and thoroughly lubricate it with SAE
30~50 motor oil. Do not use any other
lubricants on the drive chain. They may
contain solvents that could damage the O-
rings.
