3.4.2 Tensioning the V-belt (Fig. 3)
Caution! Danger of injury!
To check the tooth-belt's tension, switch off the machine
electrically and pull out the power plug.
Press the motor pedal then to make sure that the machine
is really at stand still.
The machine may not be operated without belt protection
for the motor.
The tooth-belt should not be tensioned too tight. You should be able to
compress it easily with your thumb by about 5 mm.
Too little or to great tooth-belt tension can be bad for the machine's positioning
and thus impair the function sequence.
Tension the tooth-belt (Fig. 3):
- Loosen the upper and lower fastening screws (1), (2) on the machine upper
part.
- Pull motor out a little and slightly tighten the lower fastening screw (2).
- Tension the tooth-belt by swivelling the motor.
- Tighten the upper and lower fastening screws (1), (2) again.
