Adjusting V-Belt

Tension

Properly tensioned V-belts help the Model G0504 operate at its best. However, adjusting the V- belts is not an exact science and does require personal judgement. Adjusting the belts too loose will decrease the performance of the machine and adjusting the belts too tight may cause pre- mature wear of the bearings and other compo- nents attached to the belts.

On the Model G0504 there is a triple-drive V-belt system that connects the motor to the wheel pulley and a single-drive V-belt system that con- nects the wheel pulley to the hydraulic pump (Figure 35).

Figure 35. G0504 V-belts.

To adjust the V-belt tension for the saw wheels:

1.Disconnect the resaw from the power source!

2.Adjust the belt tension by using the motor mount hex bolts shown in Figure 36.

3.When the belts are properly tightened, lock the bolts in place with the jam nuts.

To adjust the tension for the hydraulic pump V-belt:

1.Remove the small pulley cover from the pump seat.

2.Adjust the belt tension by loosening the cap screws shown in Figure 37.

3.Slide the pump left/right as needed until the belt has the proper tension.

4.Tighten the cap screws to lock the pump seat in place.
