    To adjust the C13PE Belt Tension: The C13PE uses a simple single point tensioning system for the belt tensioning. The Belt Tensioning Assembly can be found behind the engine and is located near the Operator’s Left Side Rear Engine Mounting Bolt. The Belt Tensioning Device is designed to pull or push the engine from the center which helps to reduce the Engine from twisting during the Belt Tensioning process.
  • Page 21 5. Loosen the two (2) 3/8” Jam Nuts on the C13PE Belt Tensioning Assembly (See Figure: C13PE Belt Tensioning Assembly below).
  • Page 22 Nut until the required Belt Tension is achieved. To loosen the Belts turn the front 3/8” Jam Nut counter clockwise until the required Belt Tension is achieved. (See Figure: C13PE Belt Tensioning Jam Nut Directions). NOTE: Do not over tighten the belts as too tight of belts can break Engine Output Shafts, Blade Shafts, Belts, and cause premature Bearing Failures.
  • Page 23 Check the belt tension frequently during the first day of operation. Check the belt tension periodically thereafter and make any necessary adjustments. To align the Pulleys: 1. Review the locations of the C13PE Belt Tensioning system before proceeding. (See Figure: C131PE Belt Tensioning System on page 15).
  • Page 24 4. Misalignment will show up as a gap between the pulley face and the straight edge. 5. To correct the misalignment move one pulley in or out as required. Main Causes of Belt Failures: Premature Belt failure can be attributed to the following issues: Tension (too much or too little), Pulley Misalignment, Damaged Pulleys, Improper Handling or Storage, Incorrect Blade Specification for Material Being Cut, and Cutting Too Deep.
  • Page 25: Depth Control

    E. Depth Control The depth control (raising screw) consists of a threaded rod, which feeds into a steel nut. In order to keep the two parts working smoothly it is necessary to keep the rod free from dirt and sludge as much as possible. Cleaning the threaded rod with a rag after each use will prevent sludge from collecting in the tube assembly and protect the threads.
