4.4.6 Verify Motor Belt Tension
To properly validate the installation of your machine, you must
verify that the motor belt is properly tensioned.
To verify the motor belt tension:
1. Verify that the air supply and the machine's main power
cable aren't yet connected to the machine.
2. Open the pulley cover.
Figure 4-15: Pulley cover opened.
3. Firmly push the belt between the pulleys. If it's properly
tensioned, the belt should move approximately 1/2 in. If
it's not properly tensioned, complete the steps in
"Change the Speed" (page34).

4. Close the pulley cover.
