Same with reinstall: Push wheel to front, throw chain on, pull wheel into place (back) and slide axle in.

I can't imagine having to adjust the chain every time I did a wheel or tire swap.
Pull the axle then those little plates come off so the adjusting screws shouldnt be touched. And it will go back on the same way each time.

I stand corrected. Apparently there is a way in hell the chain can hit the push rod.
