BELT REPLACEMENT AND TENSION ADJUSTMENT
WARNING: This unit has rotating parts. Use appropriate safety precautions during operating and
maintenance. ALWAYS disconnect power prior to working on the fan.
To remove belt(s), loosen the motor plate adjustment bolts and slide the motor plate so the belt(s) slip easily over
the rim of the pulley. Install new belt(s). To adjust the belt tension, slide the motor plate until proper tension is
achieved. For proper tension, a deflection of approximately 1/4” per foot of shaft center distance should be
obtained by firmly pressing the belt. Refer to figure 1. Tighten the motor plate bolts firmly after adjusting the belt
tension. Check the pulley alignment before returning the fan to operation.
PULLEY ALIGNMENT
WARNING: This unit has rotating parts. Use appropriate safety precautions during operating and
maintenance. ALWAYS disconnect power prior to working on the fan.
Pulley alignment is adjusted by loosening the motor pulley setscrew and moving the motor pulley on the motor
shaft. Correct pulley alignment is shown in figure 2.
