11.5.4. Checking the tension of the drive belt

The Prof 6 is equipped with a drive belt. This is hidden behind a belt guard as an extra safety
precaution. In order to check the tension of the belt, proceed as follows:

Belt: engine - blade shaft

• Remove the belt guard. See “11.3.1.

Removing the belt cover”, page
52.

• Place a 7-kg weight on the belt

midway between the two belt
pulleys.

• If this produces a 1-cm deflection,

then the belt tension is correct.

11.5.5. Checking the alignment of the pulleys / Replacing the belt

Belt: engine - blade shaft

• Loosen the guide bolts

(3 & 4)

and unscrew

them 2 cm - 1”.

• Position metal plates between the base of

the engine and the bolts

(3 & 4)

, and

retighten the bolt

(4)

• Slightly loosen the 4 bolts on the engine

(5, 6, 7, 8)

(M10, 17-mm wrench).

• Move the engine by moving the clamping

bolt

(4)

to tighten the belt.

• Ensure correct belt tension. See “11.5.4.

Checking the tension of the drive belt”,
page 69.

• Repeat the above operation as described

until the correct tension is obtained.
