Adjustments

Tighten v-Belt

the final step in the setup process must be done
after approximately 16 hours of operation. during
this first 16 hours, the v-belt will stretch and seat
into the pulley grooves. after this 16 hours, you
must tension the v-belt to avoid slippage and burn
out. refer to

page 35 when you are ready to per-

form this important adjustment.

Note: Pulleys and belts can get hot. This is a nor-
mal condition. Allow them to cool before making
adjustments.

A small amount of black belt dust at the bottom
of the belt housing is normal during the life of the
machine and does not indicate a problem with the
machine or V-belt.
