13.1 At this point begin to use the tensioning system to tighten the belts. There should be (2) hex nuts, one on
either side of the angle iron piece on each carriage bolt. The hex nut on the end of the bolt is used to pull the
motor on its’ channels and tighten the belts. The hex nut in between the angle iron and the channels is used
to push the motor on its’ channels to square the motor and the blower sheaves.
13.2 Follow the drive belt manufacturer’s instructions to achieve
proper belt tension. Make sure that when the belts have reached
the proper tension that the sheaves are aligned using a straight
edge. Misalignment will result in short bearing and belt life
and poor performance. Once the belts have been correctly
tensioned and the sheaves are aligned securely tighten the nuts on
the motor channels to the BBF. Also be sure the center hex nut on
the carriage bolt is tightened against the angle iron to prevent
slacking in the belts.

14.3 Align the slots in the belt guard cover with the weld nuts in the belt guard back frame. Secure
