4mm support strips

If the position of the MiniCleat is less than 4mm to the belt
edge, it is recommended to remove the MiniCleat from
the belt edge using the straight trim knife.
Rub a small amount of soap on the MiniCleat and on the
blade of the straight trim knife (see figure 11). Close the
FBW sides to use the second adaptor as an anvil while
carefully cutting the MiniCleat away from the belt.

Place a MDD belt (see figure 12) over the MSD-MC,
make sure the MDD tooth is close to the edge of the
FBW's inner side but does not exceed the edge. The
purpose of the MDD teeth is to apply pressure near the
welded edge to the belt to prevent the belt from moving
during the welding.
MDD "press pad" to be used as adapter
FBW inner side
An alternative to using MDD as "press pad", a strip
(see figure 7) is to use a plain 4mm thik belt strip

Position and tighten the FBW Crossbars. Weld the belt
according to the FBW User Manual Instructions.
Trim and check the weld. A good weld will be free of
cracks and defect. Pitch tolerance should be +0 mm,
-1.0 mm.

The Straight trim knife is used for cutting a Mini Cleat
away from the belt. Cat. #8153107
In order to maintain the pressure applied by means of the
FBW crossbars on the belt, we recommend using
sections of MDD belt as "press pads" with a width of
exactly 3 teeth pitch as shown in figure.
