General Maintenance
5.15
1. Remove the key from the key switch.
2. Press the Tension Tester steadily to the middle of the
upper side of the belt. The “lip” will lead the tester on to
the belt.
3. Slowly increase the pressure on the tester, until you
hear a clicking sound. Do not increase the pressure
after the tester has clicked.
4. Remove the tester carefully from the belt. Avoid rough
movements of the tester, as this would change the
results of the measurement. The measurement should
be in the range of 44-66 lbs (20-30 kg).
