To test the Drive Belt tension:
• Push the Drive Belt downward at the midpoint (M) between the
pulleys and measure the distance. The Drive Belt should have only
0.25” (0.64cm) of give. See Figure 1.
Or:
• Hold the edges of the Drive Belt at the midpoint (M) and twist it (see
Figure 2). It should turn only 90 degrees
(1/4 turn, to vertical).
If the tension is correct, go to Step 15.
If the tension is too loose or too tight, adjust the position of the Flywheel.
Continue to the next step.
