kettingspeling
Explanation:
Ik denk dat hier een schrijffout is gemaakt: 'chain slag' bestaat (in dit verband in ieder geval) niet, maar de kettingspanning (tension) moet af en toe bijgesteld worden als de speling (slack) te groot wordt.

kettingdoorhang


Explanation:
Mijn ervaring is dat "chain slag" duidt op de doorhang van een ketting, die je kunt opheffing door de kettingspanner te verstellen. Slag of slack is hetzelfde; maar ik kom 'slag' veel tegen in fonetisch Engels, zoals vertaling in Pakistan, India, Bangladesh (vergelijk met veelgemaakte brontekstfouten zoals break / brake, there / their). Een te hoge doorhang van een ketting kan ertoe leiden dat de ketting uit het kettingtandwiel. Denk maar aan je fietsketting
