To replace V-belt:
1. DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM POWER!
2. Put on heavy leather gloves and remove
blade from machine.
3. Loosen motor mount cap screws shown in
Figure 67.
To ensure optimum power transmission from
motor to blade, V-belt must be in good condition
and be properly tensioned.
Replace V-belt if it shows signs of cracking, fray-
ing, and excessive wear.

motor mount cap screws.
4. Pivot motor to right (as viewed from front of
bandsaw) so upper cap screw slides to right
in slot—this will release V-belt tension.
5. Roll V-belt off pulleys.
7. Remove wheel from shaft. Make sure not to
misplace the shaft key.
8. Put new belt on.
9. Align the wheel keyway with the shaft key,
and slide wheel back onto shaft.
10. Secure wheel with wheel mount bolt and flat
washer.
11. Position V-belt on desired pulleys, then prop-
erly tension it (refer to
V-Belt Tension on
Page 50 for instructions).
12. Replace blade, then properly track and ten-
sion it (refer to
Pages 23 and 26 for instruc-
tions) and adjust guide and support bearings.
6. Remove wheel mount bolt (it has left hand
threads, so it loosens by turning clockwise).
