a) Install and adjust the sprocket shaft. Adjust the bearing position by shims. Make sure the bearings are properly seated; measure and adjust the sprocket shaft by using a spirit level. Keep the sprocket shaft horizontal or in the same plane, measure the distance between the two ends of the associated shaft with a ruler, steel wire and other tools, and adjust the position of the shaft so that the associated shafts are parallel to each other: check the level of the shaft after adjustment, and adjust repeatedly until the level and The alignment meets the requirements (Figure 3-3).
b) Install the sprocket on the shaft. Check the alignment of the sprocket in the axial direction with a ruler on the machined surface side of the sprocket. If the center distance of the sprocket is very long, use a tensioned key wire, etc. to measure.
