3. Check V-belt tension by using a tension meter (3.0
lbs./1.36Kg) against the inside belt at a mid point
between the two pulleys, or by deflecting the center
belt at a mid point 3/16" (5 mm).

4. DO NOT over or under tighten the V-belts. Severe
damage can occur to the saw and engine crankshaft
if the belt is over-tensioned. A decrease of power to
the blade and poor performance will result if the belt
is under-tensioned (loose on pulleys).
NOTICE
V-belt alignment must be rechecked after adjusting
belt tension.

Any other type of tool is not to be used. See Table 6 for

WARNING
Failure to thoroughly inspect the diamond
