What's an O-ring drive chain?

An O-ring drive chain is more durable drive chain and is therefor a bit more expensive. Most ATV come with an O-ring drive chain. Look for the O-rings on you ATV's drive chain. (*) Inside an O-ring drive chain there are small rubber O-rings filled with grease. The grease inside the O-rings avoids dust and water from entering. This is what sets the chain apart from a regular chain and is why this chain needs another method of cleaning as well as another type of grease, compared to a regular chain.



Cleaning O-ring drive chain:

Before greasing it in, clean it with a regular brush.

a. Wipe the drive chain with a clean cloth.
b. Put the drive chain in kerosene and remove any remaining dirt with a not-coarse brush. (*)
c. Remove the drive chain from the kerosene and completely dry it.



Never use high-pressure water or air, steam, gasoline, certain solvents (e.g., benzine), or a coarse brush to clean the drive chain. High-pressure methods could force dirt or water into the drive chain’s internal parts, and solvents will deteriorate the O-rings. A coarse brush can also damage the O-rings. Therefore, use only kerosene to clean the drive chain.
Don’t soak the drive chain in kerosene for more than ten minutes to prevent damaging the O-rings.

After cleaning it, spray on some WD40 to protect the chain from rust.
