TRANSMISSION BELT:
Adjustment — The tension of the belt is increased by
UNSCREWING the leveler screw until you obtain a 1/2
deflection on the belt when you apply 10 pounds of
force midway between the transmission pulley and the
pulley. Lock leveler in place by tightening the lock nut.
Removal - Screw the leveler screw all the way in until the
idler is loose and remove the belt, (see Fig. 8)

POWER TAKE OFF (PTO) (see Fig. 7)
Adjustment - If the PTO creeps when it is in the disengaged
position the belt should be adjusted. To adjust:
1. Set the engagement lever in the ENGAGED position.
2. Remove the cotter-pin on the PTO adjusting rod.
3. Remove the rod from the bracket and unscrew it 3
complete turns and insert back into the bracket.
4. Replace the cotter-pin.
STARTER-GENERATOR BELT
If the starter-generator turns over and the engine does not
turn over or there is a high pitched squeel when the starter-
generator is turned on, it is an indication of a loose belt.
Adjustment — To tighten, loosen the bolt in the bracket
slightly, loosen the bolt in the adjusting strap and swing
the starter-generator away from the engine until the belt
is tight. (Belt should deflect 1/4" when depressed with
your thumb.) Tighten all bolts, (see Fig. 9)
Removal - Follow same procedure as above except when
the bolts on the bracket and adjusting strap are loose,
swing the starter-generator towards the engine until the
old belt can be removed and replaced. Follow the above
procedure for tightening the new bolt, (sed Fig. 9)
WHEEL TREAD ADJUSTMENT
The tread on the rear wheels is adjustable from 29" to 35"
by loosening the hex nut on the rear hub and sliding the
hub out. Do not extend the hub beyond the 3 inches. Tight¬
en the hex nut. Both wheels should be in the same relative
position on the axle, (see Fig. 10)
