Motor drive using tooth belts
Tension of toothed belt (Fig. 5)
CAUTION! Danger of injury!
Switch off the machine at the mains when checking the
belt tension. Do not operate the machine without belt
guard. Otherwise DANGER of crushing fingers, of injuries
The toothed belt should not be tensioned too much. You should be able to push
through it with light thumb pressure by about 5 mm.
Too little or too tight toothed belt tensioning can impair the positioning of the
machine and therefore impair the function sequence.
Tensioning the toothed belt (Fig. 5):
- Release the upper and the bottom retaining screw (1), (2) at the upper part
of the machine.
- Pull out the motor slightly and tighten the bottom retaining screw (2)
slightly.
- Tension the toothed belt by swivelling the motor.
- Tighten the upper and the bottom retaining screw (1), (2) again.
