Tensioning/
Replacing V-Belts
Two V-belts transfer power from the motor to the
cutterhead. To ensure efficient transfer of power
to this system, make sure the V-belts are always
properly tensioned and in good condition.
Note
:
After the first 16 hours of belt life, re-tension
the belts, as they will stretch and seat during this
time.
If the V-belts are worn, cracked, or damaged,
replace them. Always replace the V-belts with a
matched set of two, or belt tension may not be
equal among the belts, causing premature belt
failure.
Consider replacing stock belts with Power Twist
V-belts (see
Page 41
) to reduce vibration and
noise, and increase belt lifespan.
