Belt Inspection and Tensioning
1. Retighten V-Belt after the first 25 hours of use.
To test the tension, follow the steps below.

3. Examine Belt for cracks, tears in the
backing, or other damage. Replace Belt
if damaged according to steps below:
a. Loosen the Motor Bracket bolts and slide
the Bracket up as far as possible.
b. Slide the old Belt off of the Drum Pulley first,
then remove it from the Motor Pulley.
c. Put the new belt around the Motor Pulley
first, then around the Drum Pulley.
d. Move the Motor Bracket down until the Belt is
properly tensioned according to the directions
below. Tighten the Motor Bracket bolts.
4. Check and adjust belt tension
according to the steps below:
Deflection
Distance
a. Press on the center of the longest span
on the belt with moderate finger pressure.
Then measure the deflection distance,
the distance that the belt moved. The belt
should deflect anywhere from 1/2" to 3/4".
b. If the belt deflects too much, tighten belt
by loosening the Motor Bracket bolts and
moving the Motor away from the Drum Pulley
slightly. Tighten Motor Bracket bolts and
retest tension. If the belt is too long to be
properly tensioned, it must be replaced.
c. If the belt deflects too little, loosen the Motor
Bracket bolts and lift Bracket upward. Tighten
Motor Bracket bolts and retest tension.
5. Replace Motor Cover.
