Replacement of an endless riveted chain
|
| For O-Ring and Z-Ring chains |
|
Follow the instructions from 1 to 5 of the chapter “Installation” and continue as follows:
6 Check that the new connecting link fork has an O-Ring installed on each pin.
|
 |
WARNING
When assembling the new patented Z-Rings, they must be oriented properly. See illustration. |
|
7 Insert the new connecting link fork from the back side, avoiding any contact with the pins in order not to remove the lubricant.
8 Place the other two O-Rings on the extended ends of the bushings.
WARNING
When assembling the new patented Z-Rings, they must be oriented properly. See illustration. |
Rotate the rear wheel so that the rivet link is positioned on the lower strand of the chain where there is more room to work.

Use the professional tools P/N 805181 for 12,70 mm (1/2") pitch chains, P/N 805182 for 15,875 mm (5/8") pitch chains and P/N 805183 for 19,05 mm (3/4") pitch chains, or the Regina tool P/N 805187 only available for 15,875 mm (5/8") pitch chains.
1 Place the outer plate between bolts "B" of the mobile link plate "A",
checking the right alignment.

 |
 |
2 Put the assembling tool on the chain, placing the centering pin "C"
between the chain rollers, in order to fit with the rivet link.
3 Thread the bolt "F" in until the outer plate is placed on the rivet link
fork pins.
|
4 With a wrench, or with the bar from the professional tool, thread in the bolt "F" until the pin ends reach the bottom the slots in the link plate carrier "A". This places the outer plate at the correct position on the fork.
5 Unscrew the bolt "F" and remove the tool from the chain.

WARNING
The Regina press fit tools P/N 805182 and 805187 are supplied to operate with most common chains. When using these with chains having an oversized roller diameter (ex. 136.2/532 ZRP), it is necessary to move the centering pin "C" to a lower position. This is done by loosening the screw "E" and by lowering the centering pin "C". When servicing Regina ZRT and ZRP chains, or when the outer plates have the same profile as the inner plates, it is necessary to install plate "D" on the bottom of the press fit tool, placed over centering pin "C". |

Use the professional rivet tools P/N 805184 for 12,70 mm (1/2”) pitch chains, P/N 805185 for 15,875 mm (5/8”) pitch chains and P/N 805186 for 19,05 mm (3/4”) pitch chains, or P/N 805188 only available for 15,875 mm (5/8”) pitch chains, operating as follows:
1 Pull the plate "A" to open the positioning rods "B" (push round shield "C" if using P/N 805188), insert the chain into the tool. The chain should be correctly inserted into the tool and kept in place by rods "B" or by round shield "C".

 |
2 Slide punch "D" to contact the head of the pin to be riveted.
3 Using a hammer, give a sharp blow to punch "D" to deform the head of the pin.
4 Rotate punch "D" approx. 45° and repeat operation "3".
5 Repeat operation "4" two more times, each time rotating punch "D" approx. 45°. |
6 Release the chain by retracting plate "A" to open the positioning rods "B" (using rivet tool P/N 805188 push round shield "C" to the side) and continue the operation cycle on the second pin to be riveted.
7 Check for smooth flexing of the link and that the O-Rings are correctly positioned and not damaged or cut. After riveting, the chain must be correctly tensioned and the rear wheel axle must be tightened as indicated in the previous chapter. |

WARNING
Carefully check that the chain, when in motion, does not touch any metallic part of the vehicle, such as the engine casting, the swing arm, skid plates, chain guides, tensioners or other parts.
The Regina riveting tools P/N 805185 and 805188 are supplied to operate with most common chains. When using these with chains having an oversized roller diameter (ex. 136.2/532 ZRP), it is necessary to move the centering pin "C" to a lower position. This is done by loosening the screw "F" and by lowering the centering pins "E".
