18” DRUM SERVICE
V-BELT

• Install the new belt using the same
procedure only in reverse. Put the belt
on the cutter drum sheave first and then
the engine sheave.
• Never pry the new belt onto the sheave!
Move the engine back further if needed.
• Once the belt has been replaced, you will
need to loosen the inside jam nuts and
tighten the outside jam nuts on the
eyebolts.
• When the belt starts getting tight, check
tension. (See Check Belt Tension and
Adjust Belt Tension earlier in this
section.)
• Check sheave alignment and make
adjustments using engine slide
adjustment (jam) nuts. Make slight
adjustments until sheaves are aligned
and tension is correct.
• When tension is correct, retighten the
engine slide bolts at the rear of the
engine first.
• Then, loosen the outside jam nuts and
tighten the front engine slide bolts. If
you don’t loosen the outside jam nuts
before tightening the front engine slide
bolts, the eyebolt will be at an angle.
This will cause the threads on the
eyebolt to be damaged.
• Retighten both jam nuts on each eyebolt.
Tighten the outside jam nut on each
eyebolt first and then the inside jam nuts.
• Then torque all four engine slide bolts
(3/4”) to 175 ft lbs.
