There is a 5/8" nut you are able to get to through the bash plate directly under the front assy. Loosen and just take a DULL punch and on the right side(facing the machine) just tap at the inside of the tightner towards rear of machine and chain will tighten,not necessary to run a punch through sprocket as manual says.

You adjust the center chain first and tighten the center eccentric,then adjust the front chain by loosening the front eccentric,adjust and tighten !! The front chain will always loosen if you tighten the center chain OR if you loosen the center,the front snugs up a little! They both work hand in hand! PLUS welcome to the forum! OPT
