8. Using a square and sharp knife, cut the lacing off right
behind the lacing clips. The cut belt MUST have a square
end.
IMPORTANT
If the belt is not cut off truly square, improper belt tracking
will occur and serious belt damage can result. Always use
a large T-square or equivalent method to make sure that
belt ends are cut square at the lacing ends.
9. If you are installing a crescent top belt be sure to remove
approximately 1.0” of the raised belt crescents on both
ends of the belt. This ensures that the lacing is centered
and fully seated on the belt. Belts can be skived with a
Flexco® brand Rough Top Belt Skiver.
