Belts
Lock out and tag the power then release all pressure from the tank to prevent unexpected
movement of the unit.
Check belt tension every 3 months. Adjust belt tension to allow 3/8 inch to 1/2 inch deflection with normal
thumb pressure. Also, align belts using a straight edge against the face of the flywheel and touching the
rim on both sides of the face. The belts should be parallel to this straight edge (see Figure 20). Dimension A
should be the same as B and C to ensure proper alignment of the belts.
Slots in the bed-plate allow for sliding the motor back and forth to adjust belt tension.
