Align Fan and Motor Sheaves
Align the fan and motor sheaves using a straightedge. The
straightedge must be long enough to span the distance
between the outside edges of the sheaves. When the
sheaves are aligned, the straightedge will touch both
sheaves at points A through D (see
the shaft is parallel. For uneven width sheaves, place a
string in the center groove of both sheaves and pull tight.
Adjust the sheaves and tighten the sheave set screws to
the proper torque given in
Check Multiple Belts
Tighten the belts slightly and rotate the drive several
times.
On multiple belt drives, ensure the force of deflection is
approximately the same on each belt by pushing each belt
in an equal distance at a point halfway from each sheave
(see
Figure
46). If this force is not the same for each belt,
the motor and fan shaft are not parallel. Realign as
required. After realignment, tighten the belts again to the
standard belt tensioning specifications. If the force is still
not the same for all belts, the belts or sheaves are worn
and must be replaced.
