Pulley Alignment

Proper pulley alignment (see Figure 38) prevents pre- mature belt wear. The pulleys are properly aligned when they are parallel and in the same plane as each other. Use a straightedge on the edge of the pulleys to judge alignment.

Should you find that the pulleys are out of alignment, do these steps:

1.DISCONNECT THE PLANER FROM THE POWER SOURCE!

2.Remove the motor and front access panels, the V- belt cover, and loosen the belt tension (Page 24).

3.Using a 14mm wrench, loosen the motor mount fas- teners shown in Figure 39 just enough to allow the motor to be repositioned.

4.Slide the motor as required to align the pulleys.

5.Re-tighten the motor mount fasteners.

6.Inspect V-belts for damage caused by bad pulley alignment and replace belts as a matched set of three if necessary.

7.Re-tension the V-belts.

8.Replace the V-belt cover, motor and front access panels.
