Simple question, and maybe an obvious answer, but maybe I can learn from someone else's experience.
On the vari speed there's no provision for belt tension.
So, I'm use "B" belt pulleys from Wood's that are used on A/B section pulleys.
I've calculated the belt length from the pulley datum's.
The belt will sit quite low in the pulley.
I'm really not sure how I'm going to assemble this drive and get the motor bolts in, with the necessary tension.
Should I file the motor bolts holes out to a slot ?
Please share any experience.
I've rotated the head so the motor is siting upside down on the knee.
Thanks in advance.
