Belt tension
Regularly check belt tension and in particular during the
first hours of use.
Loose belts slip excessively which reduces crop ejection
quality and can cause conditioning rotor clogging.
Checking the tension:
The tensioning device ensures correct tension as long
as washer (3) is in contact with tube (4).
Readjust if necessary:
- Loosen counter nut (1).
- Tighten nut (2) until washer (3) is in contact with tube
(4).
- Tighten counter nut (1).
Replacing the belts
Remove 3 bolts (1).
Remove belt guard (2).
Regularly check belt tension and in particular
during the first hours of use.
Never replace belts individually. When a belt is
damaged, always replace the whole set (Part
no. 83101688).
