ASSEMBLY STEP 2

Set the Belt Tension

By hand, thread the spring trolley nut on the threaded shaft until it is finger tight against the trolley (Figure 1). Do not use any tools.

Insert a screwdriver tip into one of the nut ring slots and brace it firmly against the trolley (Figure 2).

Place a 7/16" open end wrench on the square end. Rotate about 1/4 turn until the spring releases and snaps the nut ring against the trolley (Figure 3).

This extends the spring for optimum belt tension.
