4.When proper belt tension is achieved, tighten the remaining engine mount- ing bolts.

5.Tighten stiffener bracket screw.

NOTE: Once the engine pulley has been moved from its factory set loca- tion, the grooves of the flywheel and pulley must be aligned to within 1/16" to prevent excessive belt wear. Verify the alignment by performing the fol- lowing Pulley and Flywheel - Alignment.

Pulley and Flywheel - Alignment

The air compressor flywheel and engine pulley must be in-line (in the same plane) within 1/16" to assure belt retention within flywheel belt grooves. To check alignment, perform the following steps:

1.Disconnect the spark plug wire on the engine and release all air tank pres- sure.

2.Remove belt guard.

3.Place a straightedge against the outside of the flywheel and the engine drive pulley.

4.Measure the distance between the edge of the belt and the straightedge at points A1 and A2 in Figure. The difference between

measurements should be no more than 1/16".

5.If the difference is greater or less than 1/16", loosen the setscrew holding the engine drive pulley to the shaft and adjust the pulley's position on the shaft until the A1 and A2 measurements are within 1/16" of each other.

6.Tighten the engine drive pulley setscrew to 70-80 in.-lbs.

7.Visually inspect the engine drive pulley to verify that it is perpendicular to the drive motor shaft. Points B1 and B2 of Figure should appear to be equal. If they are not, loosen the setscrew of the engine drive pulley and equalize B1 and B2, using care not to disturb the belt alignment performed in step 2.

8.Retighten the engine drive pulley setscrew to 70-80 in.-lbs.

9.Reinstall belt guard.

10.Reconnect spark plug wire to spark plug on engine.
