removing the brace.
2. Feed the belt through the slot in the base
and over the cutterhead pulley with the
arrows on the belt pointing the direction
shown by the arrow in Figure 13.
3. Have an assistant swing the motor up and
support it until the belt is in place.
4. Slide the drive belt around the motor pulley
as shown in Figure 13 and lower the motor
to tension the drive belt.
6. If the drive belt is not vertical, loosen the
setscrew in the upper pulley and slide the
pulley in or out until the belt is vertical.
