DRIVE BELT
The drive belt is a normal maintenance part and should be inspected periodically for wear. If the drive belt
shows signs of drying out, cracking or tearing, it should be replaced. If the drive belt will not track properly or
comes off the pulleys, it should be replaced.
INSTALLING NEW DRIVE BELT
1. Disconnect the plug from the power source.
2. Loosen the four screws with a Philips screwdriver
and remove the drive belt cover (fig 17).
3. Cut and remove the worn drive belt. Before installing the
new drive belt, clean both pulleys thoroughly (fig 18).
4. Place the new drive belt onto the drive pulley then
rotate it clockwise while pushing the belt onto the
driven pulley.
5. Reinstall the drive belt cover and securely tighten
screws.
