Can you take a picture of the rear swingarm? The chain should have about 1.25-1.5" of play when the rider is on the quad.

There should be 4 bolts on top of the rear swing arm loosen all 4 then there are 2 studs with nuts on them on the back of the swingarm if you loosen them it will then allow you to pull the axle back towards you wich will tighten the chain, once you have it adjusted to where you want it just tighten the 4 bolts on top of the swingarm and you are ready to ride. Really it is pretty simple you just want to make sure when loosening the nuts on the 2 studs you do so equally so that the axle is not offset to one side anyhow hope this helps!
