Belt Tension & Replacement

Note: Belts should be replaced as a matched set of three.

1.Loosen the three bolts (A, Figure 10) which hold the motor support bracket to the frame.

2.Turn the hex nuts (B, Figure 10) on the tension rod as needed.

3.When finished, tighten the three bolts (A, Figure 10).

Drive Chain Replacement

The drive chains do not require tension adjustment, since tension is always assured by an idle chain tensioner (C, Figure 11).

To replace the main drive chain, pull the tensioner (C, Figure 11) backward and remove the chain from around the sprockets. When the new chain has been mounted, always make sure the tensioner is well placed on the chain.

To replace the chain for the table raising mechanism, pull the lever (D, Figure 12) to the back and remove the chain. When the new chain has been mounted, push the lever (D, Figure 12) back into position.

Do not turn the sprockets on the table raising screws with the chain removed. Doing so will misalign the table.
