NOTE: For difficult crop conditions additional belt tensioning may be required. Do not increase the center belt tensioning dimension (B) to greater than 50 mm (2 in.) as belt life will be affected.

3. Adjust center draper belt tensioner (A) to 25 mm (1 in.) (B) as measured from outside edge of guard to end of spring cap (C).

4. Check operation of center draper belt and recheck belt tensioner to ensure proper tension is still applied to belt.
