1. Review the locations of the C1318P Belt Tensioning system before
proceeding. (See
Figure:
C1318P Belt Tensioning System
on the
previous page).
2. Remove the Belt Guard by loosening and removing the three M10 Belt
Guard Retaining Bolts.
3. Check belt tension by pushing up or down at the center top span of the
belt. The belt should move around 3/8” to ½” up and down. If
adjustment is needed go to step 4. If no adjustment is required, replace
belt guard and tighten all of the M10 Belt Guard Retaining Hardware.
4. Slightly loosen the four (4) M10 Engine Mounting Bolts. NOTE: The four
M10 Engine Mounting Bolts will need to remain snug during the belt
tensioning process. Not keeping the M10 Engine Mounting Bolts snug
may allow the engine to twist in the mounting slots which may result in
the pulleys becoming missed aligned.
5. Loosen the two (2) M10 Jam Nuts on the C1318P Belt Tensioning
Assembly (See
Figure:
C1318P Belt Tensioning Assembly
below).
