Lubrication and Maintenance

Pulleys must be aligned with the fixed idler position.
Clearance of 22⁄3" must be maintained between rear of belt
pulleys and idler.

1. Tighten taper-lock bushing hardware.

2. Lay a straight edge across face of the drive and driven

belt pulleys to ensure alignment between the grooves
on the belts and pulleys and between the idler.

NOTE: Pulleys do not need to be loosened to remove/

replace V-belts.

NOTE: V-belts should be replaced as a matched pair.

See “V-Belt Replacement”.

14. Check and adjust belt tension.

NOTE: Do not use belt dressing on V-belts. Keep all oil and grease off V-belts and belt pulleys. Drive and

driven sheaves (pulleys) do not need to be loosened to remove/replace V-belts. Low belt tension will reduce
V-belt life.

15. Install all covers removed in previous steps

before operating cart. Cycle hydraulic cylinder engaged in STEP 6,

between extended and retracted positions to check proper engagement/disengagement of belt tension idler.
