Replacing the Belts
For Puller Model 1-12
To replace puller belts:
1 Turn the rotary disconnect to the OFF position.
2 Remove the upper and lower belt guards.
3 Release belt tension by loosening the threaded rods. Keep tension on front and
back edges as even as possible by turning each rod 5-10 revolutions, then
switching to the other side. Continue until the belt is loose enough to slide off
the puller.
4 Remove the belt from the puller. Check the rollers and pulleys for buildup,
especially inside grooves. Clean if necessary.
5 Reverse the process to install the new belt.
Make sure ribs inside the belt fit properly into grooves, and keep tension on
front and back sides as even as possible by alternating between the two
threaded rods.
6 Adjust belt tension and belt gap. See Maintenance Section entitled, Testing
Belt Tension.
