V-Belt
INSTALLATION GUIDE
Never force belts into a sheave with a tool such as a screwdriver
or a wedge. Doing so may rupture the envelope fabric or
break the cords.
Refer to Tables 3 and 4 to determine if enough clearance
exists for belt installation and take-up.
For example, if you are installing a B75 Hy-T
®
plus belt, the
minimum allowable center distance for installation is 1.25
inches. For belt take-up, the minimum allowance above center
to maintain tension is 2 inches.
