Maintenance Procedures 

 

Proper maintenance is necessary to ensure that your Industrial

Power Blower operates as efficiently and trouble-free as possible. By  following the instructions in this
section you will  be providing the maintenance needed to achieve this goal.  

BELT ADJUSTMENT 

The blower drive belt has been adjusted at the  factory prior to delivery. However,
the belt should  be inspected and checked after the initial three (3)  hours of
operation as it may require re-tightening  due to belt stretch.  It should be inspected
after every 25 hours of operating time.
Operating the blower with a loose belt will cause excessive wear   and reduce
performance.  Follow the procedures  listed to properly adjust the drive belt. 

1.  Remove the eight bolts holding the front grill in  place and remove the grill.            
    (

Figure 4.1

2.  Loosen the four front engine mount bolts.    
    (

Figure 4.2

3.  Use a lever to pry or push the engine
downward to  tighten the belt (s). (

Figure 4.3

)

The belt(s) should  be snug and have very
little play.  DO NOT  OVERTIGHTEN THE BELT(S).

4.  Tighten the front engine mount bolts. On
the  Honda 13 HP models the rear mounting
studs  must also be tightened. 

5.  Re-install the front grill and test the blower.
