V-Belt Tension &
Replacement
The V-belt transfers power from the motor to the
spindle. If the V-belt does not have the proper
tension or is damaged in any way, the shaper will
not operate optimally, and unnecessary wear on
the moving parts will occur. Regularly check the
V-belt tension and replace it when necessary.
