Drive Belt: Testing and Inspection

INSPECT DRIVE BELT

a. Check the belt for wear, cracks and other signs of damage.

If any defect is found, replace the drive belt.

-

If the belt has worn out until the wire can be seen.

-

If the cracks reach the wire more than one place.

-

If the belt has chunks missing from the ribs.

b. Check that the belt fits properly in the ribbed grooves.
