WARNING

To reduce the risk associated with pinch, entanglement and hazardous voltage:

Turn electrical supply off and disconnect before performing any adjustments, maintenance or servicing the machine or taping heads

13.10Drive Belt Tension

Tension adjustment of the drive belts may be required during normal operation. Belt tension must be adequate to positively move the box through the machine and they should run fully on the surface of the pulleys at each end of the frame. The idler pulleys on the infeed end are adjusted in or out to provide proper belt tension. Each belt is adjusted separately.

Belt tension is obtained by tightening the adjustment screw so that a moderate pulling force of 3.5 kg [7 lbs] applied at the midspan, as shown in Figure 13-7,will deflect the belt 25mm [1 inch]. This will assure positive contact between the belt and the drive pulley on the discharge end of the taping head.

To adjust belts, see "Maintenance – Drive Belts", steps 3 and 7.
