Installing the Drive Belt (Using Replacement Drive Belt)
The HTN-SERIES Ride-On Power Trowel is equipped with a
replacement drive belt (spare) carrier, which is mounted on the
inboard side of the fuel tank near the clutch. Make sure that there is
ALWAYS a spare drive belt in the drive belt carrier before the trowel
is placed on a slab to finish concrete.
2. To replace the drive belt with the spare drive belt, remove
the 2 bolts that secure the drive belt carrier. (Figure 20)
This will allow free movement of the belt for installation.
Take care with to not contaminate the relplacement belt
with grease or dirt.
3. With the 3/4 x 1 x 3-1/4 wood block holding the lower pulley
open, place the replacement belt into the lower pulley first.
Work the belt over the upper drive pulley into the pulley
groove.
4. Squeeze the belt enough to remove the wood block. With
the block removed, release the tension on the belt.
5. Reinstall the spare belt carrier and the drive belt guard.
6. Replace the spare belt before the next trowel use. See
spare drive belt replacement procedures.
1. If necessary, refer to Removing Drive Belt Instructions.
Ensure all remnants of old belt have been removed from
pulleys.
