increment or decrement movement without impeding the travel of the gauge.
18. Carefully move the running belt so that you can see the dials easily while tightening the take up
roller mounting bolts. Tighten the take up roller mounting bolts alternately in order to evenly
tighten the running belt. Tighten bolts until the gauges read .55%, which is five and 1/2 lines past
the number 3.
