Prior to startup of this machine, it is recommended that the
drive belt tension be checked for proper “RUN IN”
deflection force as listed in column A of the table on the
next page.
After the equipment has run between 24 and 48 hours, drive
belt tension must be checked for proper “OPERATIONAL”
deflection as listed in column B of the table on the next
