INSPECTION - BELTS & WATER TANK

3.Check V-belt tension (Figure 17) by using a tensionmeter (6.0 - 9.0 lbs.) against the inside belt at a mid point between the two pulleys, or by deflecting the center belt at a mid point 3/8” (10 mm) - 1/2” (13 mm).

Figure 17.V-BeltTension

4.DO NOT over or under tension the V-belts. Severe damage can occur to the saw and engine crank shaft if the belts are over tensioned. A decrease of power to the blade and poor performance will result if the belts are under tensioned (loose on pulleys).

Water Tank

The SP2S13H20A Saw is equipped with a removable 5-gallon on-board water tank fitted in the top of the console which can be connected to the brass hose fitting on the rear of the operators console (Figure 18).

Before using the water tank, ensure it is filled to capacity and connected to the hose fitting to provide lubrication during cutting. An external water source can also be connected to the SP2S13H20A for extended wet cutting operations.

5. If the V-belts becomes worn or loose, see Table 5 for
