Kushlan Products KPRC160 - Manual (Page 8)

After 200 hours of operation, remove the upper belt cover to check the V-belt tension (Figure 2).Tension
is proper if the belt bends about 10mm when depressed strongly with finger between shafts. Loose or
worn V-belts reduce power transmission efficiency, cause weak compaction and reduces the life of the
belt itself.
CAUTION:
Whenever the compactor's vibration becomes weak or lost during normal operation regardless of
operation hours, check the V-belt and clutch immediately.
Replacing the V-belt
Remove the upper and lower belt covers, Engage an offset wrench (13mm) or the like to vibrator pulley
(Lower)fastening bolt. Engage waste cloth or the like at midway of V-belt on the left side and while
pulling it back strongly, rotate the offset wrench clockwise so that the V-belt will come off.
Reinstalling the V-belt
Engage V-belt to the lower vibrator pulley and push the V-belt to the left side of upper clutch and, in the
same manner as in removal, rotate offset wrench clockwise so that the V-belt goes back on.
Checking Clutch
Check the clutch simultaneously with V-belt checking. With belt removed, check outer drum of the clutch
for seizure and "V' groove for wear or damage with your eyes. Clean the "V" groove as necessary. Wear
of lining or shoe should be checked with running check. If the shoe is worn, power transmission becomes
deficient and slipping will result.
