Motor Belt Tension
- Install the motor and pulley to the motor mount plate.
- Place the motor assembly in position.
- Compress the springs by pushing the motor towards the main shaft.
- At max compression, tighten one of the slide screws temporarily.
- Put the belt around the motor pulley first, then put it around the big pulley.
- Rotate the motor a few times by hand to allow the belt to site properly.
- Loosen up the slide screw; the springs will tension the belt.
- Help the springs by pulling the motor and tighten.
- The belt must be very tight.
- Make sure to tighten all screws and nuts.
Check for proper vertical alignment of the motor pulley. Simply turn the motor several times by hand in the direction of normal
rotation (counter clock-wise when viewed from above) and check to see if the belt is aligned with the big pulley. If the belt is riding too
high, simply loosen up the motor pulley and drop it a bit, if it is riding too low, loosen up the motor pulley and raise it a bit (Fig 1 - 2).
