CHECKING AND ADJUSTING BELT
TENSION
DRIVE BELT TENSION: Proper drive belt tension is
obtained when there is zero deflection, using light
finger pressure, on drive belts (A) Fig. 16, midway
between pulleys.
If an adjustment is necessary, push down on lever
(B) Fig. 16, to disenguage feed roller. Loosen jam
nut (C) Fig. 17, located on top of motor (D) and turn
adjustment
stud (E) right or left as needed until proper drive belt
tension is obtained. Tighten jam nut (C) after
adjustment is made.
FEED ROLL BELT TENSION: Proper tension on
feed roll belt (F) Fig. 16, is obtained when there is
approximately 1" deflection, using light finger
pressure on feed roll belt (F), midway between
pulleys. If an adjustment is necessary, change
position of rod (B) Fig. 18, in stud (G) by tightening
and loosening two nuts (H) until correct belt tension
is obtained. Both nuts (H) should be tight against
stud (G) as shown in Fig. 18, after adjustment is
made.
