1/2 hour of operation, all cables may have to be
adjusted due to initial stretch. Thereafter, check tension
after every 2 hours of operation.
To increase belt tension:
1. Loosen upper jam nut.Turn nut up cable in 1/8"
increments.
2. Tighten lower jam nut.
3. Check adjustment.
This procedure can be repeated until conduit
adjustment bolts have no more adjustment left. If no
more adjustment can be made, belt may have to be
replaced.
