• Remove the two screws that secure the aluminum cover plate on the right side

of the main casting. This plate bears the mark “Model 1200”.

• Loosen (do not remove) the two elastic nuts (use a 9/16 inch socket) inside

the main frame near the rear drive pulley. Exercise care not to nick or
otherwise damage the drive pulley. The pulley has a series of shallow
groves that drive the Micro-V flat drive belt. Any damage to the groves
will shorten belt life significantly.

• Pull the main frame forward in respect to the motor. The frame will slide

across the motor face with the above elastic nuts loose.

• The belt is properly tensioned when a force of approximately 5 pounds will

deflect the belt approximately ¼ inch near the center of the belt track.

• Tighten the two elastic nuts securely and reinstall the cover plate.

Vacuum or otherwise remove dust and debris build-up regularly from the machine,

There are no other maintenance actions required. All bearings are sealed for life and
require no lubrication.
