You’ll learn from timing drive expert Roger Gillette, Technical Services Group Leader for Schaeffler. Roger is an ASE-certified technician and a former retail store leader with more than 20 years of industry experience.

  • Chain types commonly used, pitches, and influencing factors on wear patterns
  • Why proper maintenance matters
