Next came adjusting the motor to take up the slack in the belt. This is about perfect, because when you tighten the motor hold nuts it takes the last bit of looseness out of the belt without putting too much tension against either pulley. When the motor runs there is no bogging dowh of the motor, and also no tooth grinding noise when the belt is loose. I am quite pleased with this modification as now I can get replacement belts from McMaster Carr in 48 hrs if I have a problem. A position gear housing.
Notice wear marks from belt rubbing.
