Procedure 4.2 - Inspecting and Adjusting Belt Alignment and
Tension
Procedure
1. Set the on/off switch in the “off” position.
WARNING
Before continuing with this procedure, review the Warning and Caution statements listed in
Section One, Things You Should Know.
2. Remove the rear cover as described in Procedure 6.1.
3. Operate the unit by rapidly rotating a crankarm by hand. As the unit operates watch the
drive belts for proper alignment. The belts should operate parallel to each other and the
belts should maintain even spacing.
4. If the belts are not correctly aligned...
THEN... OTHERWISE...
Continue with the next step. Skip to step 13
5. Refer to Diagram 4.3 for the following belt alignment steps.The right and left tension bolts
have locking tabs. If necessary, use pliers to bend the locking tabs out of the way so that the
bolts can be turned.
6. If the step up pulley belt is out of alignment to the right, continue with step 8.
7. If the step up pulley belt is out of alignment to the left, continue with step 10.
8. Turn the left tension bolt 1/4 turn clockwise, then repeat step 3. If turning the left adjustment
bolt 1/4 of a turn was not sufficient, turn the right tension bolt 1/4 of a turn counterclockwise.
9. Repeat step 8, alternating between the left and right tension bolts until the alignment is
correct. Continue with step 13.
10. Turn the right tension bolt 1/4 of a turn clockwise, then repeat step 3. If turning the right
adjustment bolt 1/4 of a turn was not sufficient, turn the left tension bolt 1/4 turn
counterclockwise.
11. Repeat step 10, alternating between the right and left tension bolts until the alignment is
correct.
12. Belt tension must now be checked and if necessary corrected. Remember, if it is necessary
to change the belt tension, the belt alignment must be maintained.
