chain tab/runner (Kettschlaufe?)

That's about the closest I get, maybe it is a typo and this thing is meant, Kettschlaufe. It generally relates to a piece of material through which a hook could be entered, holding whatever is attached to the material. It's normally a term for curtains, but maybe it fits here too.

chain slack or chain tension

Is it for a motor, as in the ff. example?
"Adjustment of Chain Tension
The correct amount of chain slack is essential for proper operation of the chain. When the chain is too tight, working parts such as chain, sprocket wheel, shaft, bearing, etc. carry a much heavier load. On the other hand, too much slack is also harmful and causes the chain to climb the sprocket teeth."
