4. Replace the belt.
5. Move the motor mount down and tension the
new belt. Check for approximately 3 mm
(0.125”) deflection.
If the belt is too tight, it will bind the motor and
wear the belt & motor excessively.
Tighten the three ¼”-20 screws.
6. Replace the rear panel and the four ¼”-20
button head cap screws.
