Inspecting and Adjusting
the Air Conditioner Belt
Inspection and maintenance interval
... After first 50 hours (New machines only)
IMPORTANT: Do not let any oil or grease
get on the belt, as it will cause the belt to
slip, shortening its service life and reducing
the air conditioner’s cooling capacity.
If the belt is slack, it will slip and vibrate,
shortening its service life and reducing the
air conditioner’s cooling capacity. The belt
should also not be too tense. Adjust the belt
tension to the standard value (approximately
8 mm or 0.3 in.).
Inspection
1. Tilt up the platform.
2. Press on the center of the belt (1) with a
finger. The belt’s tension is normal if it
bends about 8 mm (0.3 in.) when pressed
with a force of about 98N or 22 lbs.
Adjustment
If the belt’s tension is not normal, adjust it
with the adjust bolt (3).
1. Loosen the nut (4) and bolts (5).
2. Tighten the bolt (3) to increase the tension.
Loosen the bolt (3) to decrease the tension.
3. After adjusting is completed, tighten the
nut (4) and bolts (5).
