Servicing Vee Belts
Small Cracks on V-belt side and Base
Generally caused by shortage of belt tension but
excessive heat and/or chemical fumes can also
give same failure.
Fault Finding
Vee Belt Swelling or Softening
Caused by excessive contamination by oil, certain
cutting uids or rubber solvent.
Whipping During Running
Usually caused by incorrect tensioning, principally
on long centre drives. If a slightly higher [or
lower] tension does not cure the problem there
may be a critical vibration frequency in the
system which requires rectication.
Consult your local Powerscreen® dealer or
Powerscreen® Technical Support department.
