Belt Splicing Instructions
1.
Wrap the belting around the two pulleys that will
be connected and overlap the belting as shown. Use
the spring clamps provided to hold the belting in place
temporarily. With the clamps remaining in the same
place, grasp both ends of the belting and pull tight. The
clamps should hold the belting together after releasing
the belt. (Figure 1)
2.
Punch two holes (approximately 1/8 inch in diameter)
through the overlapping belts, spacing them one inch
apart with the punch tool supplied. (Figure 2)
3.
Using the rivets, rivet washers, and the rivet tool
provided, install two rivets. The
fl
at head of the rivet must
be on the inside of the belt (the side touching the pulley),
while the rivet washer is placed on the outside of the belt.
(Figures 3, 4, & 5)

Trim the excess belting as shown. The overlap should
be approximately one to two inches in length. (Figures 6
