NOTE
When loosening drive belts, lower the saw to reduce stress on the
tensioning system, and use gravity to pull the engine forward slightly.
When tightening belts, raise the saw, and gravity will aid the process
also.
WARNING
NEVER attempt to check or adjust the V-belt
tension with the engine running. Severe injury can
occur. Keep fingers, hands, hair, and clothing
away from all moving parts.
1. Remove the Upper Belt Guard (see Fig. 26).
2. Loosen the front Engine Mount lock bolts (A, A) only, to allow the engine to slide. DO NOT
loosen the rear bolts (B, B).
3. With the front bolts loose, the rear Engine Mount bolts (B, B) should have a ¼” space, as
shown:
