9. After adjusting or changing knives, the
digital display should be checked and
recalibrated if necessary. See “Calibrating
Digital Display.”
Belt Tension & Replacement
Note: Belts should be replaced as a matched set
of three.
1. Loosen the three bolts (A, Figure 10) which
hold the motor support bracket to the frame.
2. Turn the hex nuts (B, Figure 10) on the
tension rod as needed.
3. When finished, tighten the three bolts (A,
Figure 10).
Drive Chain Replacement
The drive chains do not require tension
adjustment, since tension is always assured
by an idle chain tensioner (C, Figure 11).
To replace the main drive chain, pull the
tensioner (C, Figure 11) backward and
remove the chain from around the sprockets.
When the new chain has been mounted,
always make sure the tensioner is well placed
on the chain.
To replace the chain for the table raising
mechanism, pull the lever (D, Figure 12) to
the back and remove the chain. When the
new chain has been mounted, push the lever
(D, Figure 12) back into position.
Do not turn the sprockets on
the table raising screws with the chain
removed. Doing so will misalign the table.
