Crown WAV 50-118

Hi, I'm looking for advice regarding checking second stage lift chain elongation.
I can't seem to find any way of exposing enough chain to check it as it seems to be all enclosed.
Any advice would be appreciated
Thanks
Andy

Its a Crown special tool, they should be able to pull it out of the service manual.

Thanks Techno. Do you know where I can source the chain gauges, or do I have to go directly to Crown?

Open the mast full and there are two elongated slots on the opposite side to the platform to check the chains with, you need the correct WAVE chain gauge as its the right length to fit the distance between the slots.

Fact of the week
The origin of "love" as the score zero in tennis is debated, but two main theories prevail. One suggests it's derived from the French word "l'oeuf" (egg) which resembles the shape of the number zero. The other proposes it's related to the Dutch word "lof" meaning "honour" as players might be playing for honour when scoreless.
