DRIVE BELT ADJUSTMENT
General informations
If it seems that the forward drive is not working pro
perly after a long period of use or after repla cing the
belt, this may be caused by a change in the length
of the belt.
– A loose belt reduces output from the transmission
and limits forward movement power;
– a belt which is too tight increases noise and re
sults in jerky movements or tipping up when en
gaging the drive.
In these cases the stretcher will need to be adju sted.

• Remove the left guards.
You obtain correct spring (1) tension by moving the
hooking position to one of the holes (2) until you have
a quota of:
77 100 mm
measured on the outer side of the coils, with drive
commands in the rest position and the parking brake
disengaged.
NOTE The correct measurement is performed
from the side of the spring facing the front of the
machine, accessible from the rear left.
Moving the spring (1) requires a certain effort and is
easier when a specific tool (3) is used to hook and
move the end of the spring.
• Reassemble the left guards.
