To replace belts or change Blade Size
• The model SS26-31D and SS36-57D are heavy duty saws designed to use large diameter blades for deep
cutting. SS26-31D - blade size 14 inch to maximum diameter of 26 inches (66cm). SS36-57D - blade size 14
inch to maximum diameter of 36 inches (92cm). (Figures 10 thru 15)
• To use smaller diameter blades, the sheaves and belt sizes must be changed. Refer to chart for belt sizes and
sheave diameters. In addition, both the backing plate and retaining cap may have to be changed to correspond
with the blade size.
• Remove belt guard and arbor guard. Loosen engine mounting bolts and jam nuts, turn jacking bolts to lower
engine (Figure 10 thru 15) to a point where the belts can be removed. Remove jackshaft belt on SS36-57D fi rst to
gain access to arbor shaft belts.
• Remove transmission belt from the engine sheave, (SS26-38K, SS36-57D and SS26-31D only, Figures 11 & 13
respectively), on the SS36-57D remove the jackshaft belt, the transmission belt does not have to be removed.
• Remove the blade backing plate. (Blade size change only)
• Use proper tools to remove sheaves from the arbor shaft and the engine stub shaft. (Blade size change only)
• Using the chart below place the proper sheave on the arbor shaft and the engine stub shaft in the order they were
removed. Using a straight edge align sheaves, tighten any bolts or set screws that were removed or loosened.
(Blade size change only)
• Reverse this procedure to install the belts and follow instructions on adjusting the belt tension. 70 ft. lbs. of defl ec-
tion at the center between the sheaves, is recommended.
• Once all hardware is in place and the belts are tensioned install the belt guard securing with supplied hardware.
Remember to retension new belts after four hours of use, then as necessary.
• Remember: Belts should swell as they wrap around the pulley. If they squeeze down or are slick with shredded
edges replace immediately. Proper power transfer cannot be achieved under these conditions.
* Jackshaft belt is required AX38
