until it is properly tensioned according to
the directions below. Tighten the motor
bracket bolts.
4.
Check and adjust belt tension according
to the steps below:
= 1/2″ to 3/4″
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 mounting
bolts and moving the motor away from
the other pulley slightly. Secure motor
mounting 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 it upward.
Secure motor mounting bracket and
retest tension.
5.
Before use, replace belt motor cover.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Problem
Possible Causes
Likely Solutions
Tool will not start.
1. Cord not connected.
2. No power at outlet.
3. Internal damage or wear.
1. Check that cord is plugged in.
2. Check power at outlet. If outlet is unpowered,
turn off tool and check circuit breaker. If breaker
is tripped, make sure circuit has the correct
capacity for the tool and circuit has no other
loads.
3. Have technician service tool.
Tool operates slowly. Extension cord too long or wire size
too small.
Eliminate use of extension cord. If an extension
cord is needed, use shorter/heavier gauge cord.
See
Extension Cords
in
GROUNDING
section.
Excessive noise or
rattling.
1. Belt (if equipped) too loose
(slipping) or too tight (bearing
damage).
2. Internal damage or wear.
1. Properly tension belt.
2. Have technician service tool.
Overheating/
Overloading.
1. Running at 100% load for
extended time.
2. Blocked motor housing vents.
3. Motor being strained by long or
small diameter extension cord.
1. Allow for lighter no-load intervals.
2. Wear ANSI-approved safety goggles and NIOSH-
approved dust mask/respirator while blowing dust
out of motor using compressed air.
3. Eliminate use of extension cord. If an extension
cord is needed, use one with the proper diameter
for its length and load. See
Extension Cords
in
GROUNDING
section.
Follow all safety precautions whenever diagnosing or servicing the tool.
Disconnect power supply before service.
