NOTE: Check tracking at rear roller. Tracking can be checked by inspecting the position of the edge of the belt in relation to the edge of the rear roller on each side. A properly tracked belt will be centered on the rear roller. If belt appears to be tracking to one side, tighten tensioner slightly on that side or loosen tensioner slightly on the opposite side. Feeder belt will track towards the slack side.
