CAUTION:
NEVER
attempt to check the V-belt with
the engine running. Severe injury can
occur if your hand gets caught between
the V-belt and the clutch. Always use
safety gloves.
Checking and Replacing the V-belt and Clutch
After 200 hours of operation, remove the upper belt cover to
check the V-belt tension (Figure 2). Tension is proper if the
belt bends about 10mm when depressed strongly with
finger between shafts. Loose or worn V-belts reduces power
transmission efficiency, causing weak compaction and
reduces the life of the belt itself.
CAUTION:
Whenever the compactor’s vibration
becomes weak or lost during normal
operation regardless of operation hours,
check the V-belt and clutch immediately.
Replacing the V-belt
Remove the upper and lower belt covers. Engage an offset
wrench (13mm) or the like to vibrator pulley (lower)
fastening bolt. Engage waste cloth or the like at midway of
V-belt on the left side and while pulling it back strongly,
rotate the offset wrench clockwise so that the V-belt will
come off.
Reinstalling the V-belt
Engage V-belt to lower vibrator pulley and push the V-belt to
left side of upper clutch and, in the same manner as in
removal, rotate offset wrench clockwise so that the V-belt
goes back on.
Checking Clutch
Check the clutch simultaneously with V-belt checking. With
belt removed, check outer drum of the clutch for seizure and
“V” groove for wear or damage with your eyes. Clean the
“V” groove as necessary. Wear of lining or shoe should be
checked with running check. If the shoe is worn, power
transmission becomes deficient and slipping will result.
