Belt tension

Correct belt tension is crucial for minimising belt wear and maximising machine efficiency. To check the belt tension, fully engage
the belt then open the bonnet. There should be approximately 5 mm deflection in the belt when pressing firmly on the belt (as per
the image below). Alternatively, the tension can also be checked by looking at the tensioning device from underneath the machine;
the notch on the idler arm s

hould line up with ‘15°’ on the

tensioner (as per the image below). If required, adjust belt tension.

Note

: After using the machine for the first time, or after replacing the belts, it is recommended to check the tension again after the

first 5 hours of operation, as the belt will stretch as it wears into the system.

Belt tension adjustment

The belt tension can be adjusted by moving the M16 nyloc adjustment nut (below the machined engagement block) up or down
the engagement thread. You will need to use a 24 mm spanner to do so. The belt tension will increase as the nut is moved down
the thread.

Belt replacement

If the belts in your chipper look similar to any of the following images or are clearly broken, then they need to be replaced.

To remove the belts, open the bonnet and fully disengage the belts. The C40 requires three SPB1260 belts.
