I don't have a good pic for you right now. The chain runs tangent to the sprocket. If you've used Bosh, 80/20, or anything like it you'll find it has channels in it on each side. The chain we use fits in that channel such that it runs in tangent to the sprocket. With the motor fixed and the chain fixed on both ends to the inner tubing it will run up or down. Hope this helps to clarify things, I'll try to get a pic for you though.
