i dont have pics but,Loosen the 4 allen head bolts in the back of the swingarm.Make sure they are very loose.Take the allen wrench and stick it between the holes in the sprocket and put it in the slot on the axle carrier.Carefully roll the quad backwards(i think)to tighten the chain.Dont jerk it hard you can break the carrier if its stuck.Get the chain where there is around 3/4 -1 1/4 inch of play while you have some weight on the quad or just pull down on the grap bar. then retighten the 4 allen bolts and your done.

It should state how to adjust the chain in your oweners manual. It is part of your regular manintance
