Pull about half of the belt through the gearbox, across
the top half of the Motor Plate.

Now carefully place the Jewel Sewing Machine onto
the carriage, aligning the wheels with the carriage track.
8-5 .
Thread the front end of the belt up through the Belt
clamp and out the top, as shown in Fig. 8-C and 8-D. The
belt teeth should face up (or face the sewing machine).
8-6 .
Now tighten the Belt Clamp together using a 10mm
open ended wrench, as shown in Fig. 8-E.
Note:
Make sure to keep the zip ties loose enough to allow
the ribbon cable to slide easily without stressing wires or
damaging them.
