Sounds like you got it pretty well together....Good drag machime...Don't forget the fail safe....to kill the engine..
As to your clip on the chain..I take it is like a master link..horseshoe in shape..Correct..When you put the clip on ..face the
closed end in the direction it rotates forward......If this is a master link ,,I know they make a heavy duty link..Like used for
chainsaw's just have to know the number chain..example 28 35 ....But you might knoe this any way..
