The belt of a LCB060 must be tensioned to a value of 760 N.
Please use a suitable
belt tension measuring device RSM
(see page 21) for
measuring and setting this value.
Belt tension measuring device RSM
The RSM belt tension measuring device determines the tension of the belt on the
basis of preset data (specific mass of belt, freely oscillating length of belt) and the
oscillating frequency of the belt.
The belt tension measuring device can be purchased at Parker (Part No.
037-000200).
An operating manual with a description of the measuring procedure comes with the
device.

(2)
(1) timing belt tensioning screws
(2) counter screws
The belt is tensioned with the aid of the timing belt tensioning screws at the
tensioning station (loosen lock nut during tensioning process and re-fasten
afterwards)
After tensioning, the belt must be aligned.
An exact alignment is only possible during movement of the sliding carriage,
with correct adjustment, the toothed belt always oscillates from left to right (in
the driving direction).
In order to maintain the pretension of the belt, please turn the tensioning screws
only in very small steps.
If necessary, check belt tension again after the alignment.
