LW 100 Series
Version: 29.03.2016
Check V-belt tension
The compressors of all LW 100 versions are driven by V-belts. Check correct V-belt tension regularly,
adjust if necessary. The V-belt could lose tension during transportation. Please check the V-belt
tension before starting the compressor.
Tension V-belts
• Switch off the compressor unit, pull the plug if necessary.
• Tilt the compressor slightly aside.
• Loosen mounting screws (SW13) of the motor flange (Fig. 1).
• Turn clamp nut (SW13) until correct V-belt tension (Fig. 2).
Rotation direction clockwise: increase V-belt tension.
Rotation direction anti-clockwise: reduce V-belt tension.
• Tighten mounting screws of the motor flange.
• Check V-belt tension and adjust if necessary.
Correct V-belt tension
Do not tension V-belts too tight. This damages bearings of
compressor and motor. The V-belts should only be tensioned
until there is no noise caused by slipping during start.
