Disconnect electric power and loosen motor clamping
bolts. Slide motor towards pump. If the compressor has
a totally enclosed belt guard, remove it. Remove and
replace belt(s). Hold motor against belts when retighten-
ing so the belt(s) have no more than l/2 in. (13 mm)
total play. Make certain motor is square to belts. Reinstall
guard and turn on power.
NOTE: Sometimes new belts stretch excessively after
being installed. Recheck belt tension after one
week as stated in BELTS paragraph of MAIN-
TENANCE section.

see BELTS paragraph in MAINTENANCE section.
CAUTION
Many motors are dual voltage and/or reversible.
Check motor's internal wiring against diagram on
motor or inside of wiring cover plate for proper
connections for voltage being used and/or rotation.
The compressor will pump air if rotated backwards
but will not cool properly.
