Delta 37-195, 37-275X Assembling Belt and Aligning Pulleys, Adjusting Belt Tension

ASSEMBLING BELT AND ALIGNING PULLEYS

1.Place belt (A) Fig. 11, in groove of cutterhead pulley

(B) and motor pulley (C).

2.Make certain the motor pulley (C) Figs. 11 and 12, is properly aligned with cutterhead pulley (B) by placing a straight edge (D) Fig. 12, onto the face of each pulley as shown.

3.If an adjustment is needed, the motor pulley can be moved in or out on the motor shaft, or the motor can be shifted by loosening motor mounting screws, two of which are shown at (E) Fig. 11. After adjustments are made, tighten motor mounting hardware and motor pulley set screw.

ADJUSTING BELT TENSION

1.Correct belt tension is obtained when there is approximately 1" deflection at the center span of the belt using light finger pressure.

2.If an adjustment is required, the motor can be raised or lowered to obtain the correct belt tension.

3.Tighten motor mounting hardware after tension is applied, making sure alignment of the pulleys is not disturbed.

4.Re-attach back panel of stand which was removed in STEP 2 of “ASSEMBLING JOINTER TO STAND”.

ASSEMBLING CUTTERHEAD PULLEY GUARD/CARRIAGE MOUNTING BRACKET

1.Position two alignment pins (A) Fig. 13, with two alignment holes (B) in jointer base.

2.Using the supplied 6mm hex wrench (E) Fig. 14, fasten bracket (C) onto jointer base (G). Place a M8.1 lockwasher then an M8 flat washer on an M8x1.25x55mm hex socket head screw. Insert the screw (D) Fig. 14, through the hole in bracket (C), and thread the screw into the jointer base (B) Fig. 13, and tighten securely. Repeat this process for the three remaining holes in the bracket and jointer.
