Adjustments
Main Belt Tension
1.Disconnect machine from power source.
2.Open back panels to expose the motor, pulleys and belts, as shown in Figure 10. Loosen hex nut (Fig. 11) and turn the adjustment screw as needed to adjust the tension. Proper tension is achieved when there is a small amount of deflection by using moderate finger pressure on the belt midway between the pulleys.
3.Tighten hex nut (Fig. 11) and replace panels.
