6. Stretching of the v-belt
Perform ordinary tension check-up of the vbelt located under the lateral protection casing. To remove the
casing release all fixation screws and then access the belt and check whether duly stretched. If not, adjust
belt tension or entirely replace the belt if required. An excessively slacken off belt will cause slipping and
earlier belt wear.
To adjust vbelt tension on GSE models 242 release all fixation screws on the motor, push the motor ahead
and tighten screws again.
On GSB models GSB242 it is also possible to adjust the vbelt tension by ways of the special crank lever
available on the lateral protection casing.
Alternatively you can adjust the vbelt tension by using the adjustment screw located on the angular gearbox
bracket.
