STEP 5 Tighten the belt
1. By hand, thread the spring trolley nut on the threaded shaft until it is finger tight against the
trolley. Do not use any tools. Remove the screwdriver.
2. Insert a flathead screwdriver tip into one of the nut ring slots and brace it firmly against the trolley.
3. Tighten the spring trolley nut with an adjustable wrench or a 7/16" open end wrench about a
quarter turn until the spring releases and snaps the nut ring against the trolley. This sets the
spring to optimum belt tension.
