en the jam nut and bolt A with a 12 mm wrench.
2. Loosen jam nuts B and bolts C with a 12 mm wrench
until the motor base can be moved.
3. Open the pulley cover and change the belt.
Note: if there is not enough slack to move the belt,
loosen tension screws C as needed.
4. Place a straightedge on the two pulleys as shown D
to verify their alignment.
5. If the pulleys are not aligned, loosen the four bolts
E and F located on the motor mounting plate, and
then re-position the motor along the slotted mount-
ing holes so that the pulleys are aligned.
6. With the pulleys aligned, retighten the four bolts E
