BELT TENSION ADJUSTMENT
Proper belt tension is critical to good performance. After 1/2 hour of
operation, all cables may have to be adjusted due to initial stretch.
Thereafter, check tension after every 2 hours of operation.				detent pin
To increase belt tension: (SEE FIGURE 5)
1. Loosen upper jam nut. Turn nut up cable in 1/8” increments.
2. Tighten lower jam nut.		for		depth regulator
