8. Screw the pedestal bracket into position with the self tapping
screws mid-way in the elongated holes. This will ensure that the
belt is taut when you rotate the clutch lever fully clockwise to
tension the belt.
9. Re-assemble the complete drive system and then check the clutch
operation. If necessary, reposition the clutch lever on the splined
eccentric bush to ensure that the lever can rotate 180° without
obstruction.
10. Check the belt tension:
• when the belt is tensioned by rotating the clutch lever fully
clockwise, you should be able to back-wind the drive unit by
slowly rotating the wheel. If belt slip occurs, increase belt
tension by reclamping the clevis in a slightly lower position.
• when the clutch lever is rotated fully anti-clockwise the wheel
drum should slip easily against the belt
• do NOT over tighten the belt
