Tensioning/Replacing
V-Belts
After approximately 16 hours of operation,
V-belts will stretch and seat into pulley grooves
and need to be properly tensioned to avoid
severely reducing life of V-belts.
Three V-belts transfer power from the motor to the
cutterhead, and then to the infeed and outfeed roll-
ers with the use of the drive chain system. To ensure
efficient transfer of power to these systems, make
sure the V-belts are always properly tensioned and in
good condition.
If the V-belts are worn, cracked, or damaged, replace
them. Always replace the V-belts with a matched set
of three, or belt tension may not be even among the
belts, causing premature belt failure.
V-belts and pulleys will be hot after operation.
Allow them to cool before handling.
