MAINTENANCE
FLAIL AXE HEAD
BELT TENSION
When installing new belts, tighten belts to obtain a 16 lb. Belt Deflector Force at 7/16" deflection. After a few hours of operation to allow the belts to seat into the sheave grooves recheck and adjust as needed to obtain an 8 to 12 lb. Belt Deflection Force at 7/16" deflection. Inspect belts and recheck belt tension periodically to maintain an 8 to 12 lb. Belt Deflection Force at 7/16" deflection.
