In the order: we start with what does not require anything to disassemble. Check as you go, the list is kept in this browser.
The adjustment screw could be unscrewed. Roll up the engine in small steps until you regain the cycle, then refine to sound.
Simple toolsTools: Allen keysEngine out, sprocket teeth must be clean. A pinion rotating on the axis or with rounded teeth replaces itself; its locking screw mounts to the thread brake.
Simple toolsTools: Allen keys, Precision screwdriverGearbox open: teeth ripped from the bevel gear often sign a poor motor setting or too loose shimming (definition). Correct the cause at the same time as the play.
