3.5 Alignment
Before aligning the pulleys it is important that the pulleys are mounted
correctly on the shafts and that the shafts are straight. Buckled pulleys will
have a detrimental effect on the alignment quality. Adjust one (or both) pulley
machine(s) step by step until the laser line hit the three reference lines of the
receiver unit.
Step 1. Elimination of vertical angle misalignment
Place shims beneath the front or rear feet of the moveable machine until the
laser line is parallel to the reference lines (as per figure 11).

misalignments combined

Step 2. Elimination of horizontal angle misalignment
Move the machine until the laser line is positioned equidistantly from the
three reference lines, the top reference line and the two bottom reference
lines (as per figure 13).
