Owner manual

PRE-START

Your unit is assembled at the factory such that the Belt tension between the GP-6 Cabmaker and the

electric motor is set to the required tension. Finger tip pressure on the belt (halfway between the motor

and drive shaft pulleys) should show approximately 1/2" of belt deflection (Fig 1). If the belt requires

adjustment, loosen the motor mounting bolts and move the motor slightly toward the polisher to de-

crease belt tension or away from the polisher to increase belt tension. Tighten the motor mount bolt

and recheck the belt tension. When the belt is properly tensioned, check that all motor mount bolts are

securely tightened and replace the belt guard.

Check all four motor mount bolts (Fig 2), motor arbor pulley setscrew (Fig 3), wheel shaft pulley set-

screw (Fig 4), and belt guard mounting nuts to make sure they are tight.
