7. Check V-belt tension by applying moderate
pressure between pulleys (see Figure 57 on
Page 40).
— If V-belt deflection is approximately
belt is correctly tensioned. Proceed to
Step 8.
— If there is more than
(4) motor mount hex bolts and hex nuts,
then repeat Steps 6–7 until properly ten-
sioned. If tension cannot be achieved,
proceed to Replacing V-Belt.
8.
Hold a straightedge close to the center of
both pulleys, and make sure straightedge
fully extends across rims of both pulleys (see
Figure 59).
— If pulleys are parallel and coplanar,
straightedge will touch the top and bottom
rims on both pulleys. No further adjust-
ment is required.
— If pulleys are parallel but not coplanar,
straightedge will touch the top and bot-
tom rims on one pulley, but will not touch
either rim on the other pulley. In this case,
loosen (4) carriage bolts securing motor
mount, then re-position motor so straight-
edge touches the top and bottom rims on
both pulleys. Repeat Steps 6–8.
