8. Put the V-belt on the motor pulley, then roll it onto

the cutterhead pulley, as shown in

Figure 13.

9. Check the alignment of the pulleys to make sure the

V-belt is straight up and down.

— If the pulleys are aligned, go to Step 13

— If the pulleys are NOT aligned, follow Steps 10–

12.

10. Remove the V-belt and loosen the motor mount bolts

shown by the white arrows in

Figure 12.

11. Shift the motor horizontally as needed to align the

pulleys, and tighten the motor mount bolts.

sion on the V-belt, and tighten the motor bracket

bolts with your other hand.

NOTICE

Overly loose V-belts can slip on the pulleys and burn

up or cause poor machine performance. Overly tight

V-belts cause unecessary wear on the motor and

pully bearings, leading to a shortened lifespan.
