See Graphic: wc_gr003538
On new machines or after installing a new belt, check belt tension after
the first 20 hours of operation. Check and adjust belt every 100 hours
thereafter.
To change the belt:
3.3.1 Make sure that the trowel is unplugged from any electrical supply.
3.3.2 Loosen the screws (d) and remove the belt guard (c).
3.3.3 Loosen the motor plate jam nuts (e). Slide plate toward handle to
loosen belt.
3.3.4 Slowly turn pulley (b) and roll belt (a) off.
Note: The pulleys are aligned at the factory and neither should be
removed during belt replacement.
3.3.5 Install new belt on the pulleys. Adjust tension on belt by moving the
motor plate. Belt deflection should be 6–10 mm (1/4–3/8"), checked
half way between the pulleys. Tighten the jam nuts. Torque the screws
to 25 Nm (18 ft.lbs.).
3.3.6 Reattach the belt guard with washers and screws. Torque the screws
to 5 Nm (3.7 ft.lbs.).
