This has been covered many times on this site, but I have to admit the image in owner's manual is confusing!
Take a look at lower left corner for chain slack measurement: (re-using schleppy's pic.. thanks!!)
Here is the confusing bit (in my opinion): if you look at that diagram, it looks like you should be measuring from the bottom of the chain to lower mark and from the top of the chain to upper mark. This will not give you nearly enough slack!
The slack (or total up-down movement of 25-35mm) should be measured from either top or bottom of the chain. That is to say: if you push the chain up and take the measurement from the top of the chain, you should now push down and take another measurement from the top of the chain .. and you're looking for total movement to be between 25 and 35mm.
Chime in if you think the above statement is incorrect. Chime in if you agree too.. so that next person looking to do adjustment will be confident in the *right* approach
