2.9 drive Belts
The drive belts that connect the hydraulic motor to
the cutting drum eccentric are carbon fiber industrial
belts designed for high horsepower applications.
The ribbed drive belts are matched to grooved pul-
leys and have very little stretch. Therefore, they
typically don’t require adjustment often and proper
belt tension is extremely important when adjust-
ment is required. The belts are strong enough to
cause severe damage to bearings, shafts and other
components if they are set too tight. Additionally, if
a belt is too loose, it can ride on top of the grooves
and thus become too tight.
The drive belts for the eccentric final drive pulleys
and the belt that connects the hydraulic motor to
the eccentric drive axle are different and, therefore,
have different tension specifications. Additionally,
new belts have a different tension specification
than used belts (drive belts with 20 hours or more).
Instructions for adjusting the drive belts and ten-
sion specifications are included in the Lubrication &
Maintenance section of this manual.
WARNING
THE DRIVE BELTS CAN CAUSE SEVERE DAMAGE TO
PULLEYS, SHAFTS AND BEARINGS IF THEY ARE ADJUSTED
TOO TIGHT OR MISALIGNED. THIS CAN CAUSE SEVERE
DAMAGE TO DRIVE SYSTEM COMPONENTS AND INJURY

THROWN FROM THE MACHINE. ALWAYS MAKE SURE THE
BELTS ARE PROPERLY ALIGNED AND SET TO THE BELT
MANUFACTURER’S SPECIFICATIONS WHEN THEY REQUIRE
ADJUSTMENT. NEVER OVERTIGHTEN THE BELTS.
Make sure you refer to the belt tension specifica
-
tions in the Lubrication & Maintenance section of
this manual or the belt manufactures information
manual when adjusting the belt tension and never
overtighten them.
