Make a Chain
Step 1: Seperating the Chain
You Will Need 6 Segments-
Using a Screwdriver Wedge In Between The 2 Most Outer Layers Where Shown
Next Tap The Back End Of The Screwdriver With Hammer Seperating The Layers.
Once They Are Seperated Use the pliers To Pull The part Out Of The Socket.
Step 2: Cleaning and Ring Placement
To Remove ALL the Grease-
Cup Your Hand and Pour In Sugar
Then Pour On Dish Washing Soap
Once You've Done That Scrub The Chain In Between Your Hands For 3 Min (Or More)
The Sugar Will Rip And Scrub The Grease Out Of The Way For The Soap To Get In and Do Its job
(This Works When You Have Grease On Your Hands Or Body And Will 100% Remove All Of It)
After You Rinse Away The Soap And Sugar Get a Key Ring-
Connect the Chain Together By looping The Ring Thru It.
Congradulations!

in order to not damage the chain, why not use a chain tool if you've got it handy? it pushes the pin in the middle to the outermost layer, so you can remove the inside of the other link.
