It should have two bolts, one in front, one in back, that should be loosened, then tightened, to automatically adjust the timing chain tension.  Check the manual, available on the home page of this sight, for instructions on how to adjust this.

Adjustment is critical, and it is routine maintenance.  If it is ignored, major engine damage can result.  As far as changing it goes, I could not advise you on that.  Cheers!
