Aligning Pulleys - Grizzly G0813 Owner's Manual

Aligning Pulleys

Pulley alignment is another important factor in
power transmission and belt life. The pulleys
should be parallel to each other and in the same
plane (coplaner) for optimum performance.
The pulleys can be adjusted by loosening the
pulley set screws, aligning the pulleys, and
retightening the set screws.
Tool Needed
Hex Wrench 3mm .............................................. 2
Straightedge ...................................................... 1
To align pulleys:
1.
DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM POWER!
2.
Remove cabinet rear access panel and belt
guard.
3.
Place straightedge against pulleys to check
their alignment (see Figure 86).
Note: This can also be done visually (without
a straightedge) if you do not have a straight-
edge available that will fit; however, the
most accurate results will come from using a
straightedge.
