I don't know what Bobcat lists for chain tension but this might help. This is what Diamond chain suggests.

Paladin/Bradco makes a bunch of the renamed skid steer implements for Bobcat, Cat, Deere, etc.....
Very good quality stuff
Try a google search for your model number, may well turn up a service manual

Why not use the OEM manual?
Where'd you buy the chains?
Did you buy the rake bars, too?

So, is it 1 to 2 inches, or, 3 to 4 inches?
Myself, I set them at 1.5" deflection. And, I've had to put the jamb nuts on the opposite side of the jack screws, to keep adjusting the bearings for wear.
And, obviously, a Rockhound 72A is a Bobcat 6A Landscape Rake, and...

Thanks Jimbo. Thats what we did. i have yet to get the slack dialed in, too busy in the field.
I didnt have the OEM manual but i found the Rockhound one that you have attached. I just have to find the time to adjust the chains.
I bought the chains from our local bobcat dealer. The bolt on rake bars weren't too bad so we straightened out the bent ones and installed them on the new chains with some new hardware. i priced those out and they were about $300 a piece!
