5. ADJUSTING BELT TENSION
Safety: Ensure tractor and machine is stopped & keys out of ignition before set-up/maintenance.
Correct Belt Tension
The correct belt tension is achieved when the belt can be deflected by the belt thickness about
10mm at the centre point between the pulleys.
A generic measure across machines is the belt should be able to twist a quarter turn by hand. Any
more and they are too loose and any less and too tight, you may run the risk of losing drive to the
mower or burning the belts out prematurely.
Always use a straight edge to make sure the belt pulleys are in line and running true. If misaligned,
call your dealer or service engineer for technical support.
