Moving the spring (2) requires a certain eort
and is easier when a specic tool (4) is used to hook
and move the end of the spring.
The adjustment spring can be accessed by remo ving
the inspection hatch (1).
Correct spring tension (2) is obtained by moving the
hook to one of the slots (3) until a measure “A” is ob-
tained of 156-160 mm, measured on the outside of the
ttings, with the transmission commands di sengaged
and parking brake o.
General informations
If it seems that the forward drive is not working
pro perly after a long period of use or after repla
cing the belt, this may be caused by a change in
the length of the belt.
– A loose belt reduces output from the drive and
li mits forward movement power;
– a belt which is too tight increases noise and
re sults in jerky movements or tipping up when
en gaging the drive.
In both cases the stretcher needs to be adjusted.
