• Loosen the locknuts and slide the engine block up or down,
depending on the belt tension.
• Tighten the 4 bolts (M10) evenly until the 2 free belt parts can be pressed together to up to 1
cm from each other in relaxed condition.
• Attach the protective belt cover. When replacing the protec
-
tive cover make sure that the cable on the back right of the
spiker runs in the provided space.
• Replace the switch and fasten it.
• Tighten the four Allen screws again.
11.4.3 Replacing the spikes
Warning:
Wearing gloves is mandatory!
• We strongly recommend NOT to replace only one or just a few spikes since this interferes with
a uniform operation of the machine across the entire width.
To replace the spikes, first loosen the 6 bolts of the axle
cover.
After that, the spikes can be pulled out, or knocked out with
a hammer.
• Clean the nylon distance collars. If the axle shows heavy wear at the location of the spikes, it
must be replaced as well.
• Clean the axle thoroughly. Use sandpaper if necessary.
•
Check both bearings for signs of play. Rotating the bearings will quickly reveal any bearing noise. If
there is any, replace the bearings together with the spikes.
