10. Attach the new skew motor to the LNB/feed tube
assembly with the belt positioned around the outer lip of
the motor hub. Ensure that the motor’s connector is facing
the motor cable, as shown in Figure 5-28. Reinstall the
washers and screws that you removed in Step 7, but do
not tighten them yet.
11. Slide the motor to adjust the belt tension until the belt
teeth fully engage the motor hub and the pulley. Tighten
the motor cap screws.
Some readjustment may be necessary if
the belt tension results in excessive vibration.
