    Tightening the Timing Belt You can tighten the Timing Belt using Reverse Unit KLE 6 60x60 or Reverse Unit KLE 8 80x80. Two Hexagon Socket Head Cap Screws DIN 912 are provided for this purpose on the end of the Reverse Unit.
  • Page 20 Linear Units KLE ― Notes on Use and Installation Tip: Instead of measuring the movement of the tensioning axle, it is advisable to measure the actual elongation of the Timing Belt. When using this approach, the exact position of the tensioning axle before you make any adjustments is irrelevant and measu- rement errors can be minimised.
