2 questions:
My C2C is a bit less than 10.5". It should be 10.5 to 10.6. I loosened 3 front motor mount bolts and both ends of the little torque arm, but I couldn't expand the C2C distance any. Am I missing something? How do you increase C2C distance?
If the specified deflection range is approx .5" to .6"... You adjust towards the smaller number as the belt wears from 1.38 down to 1.26, correct?
IOW - smaller number actually = greater deflection, correct?
Thanks!

okay - I figured out the obvious...you loosen all motor mounts to position the motor properly for C2C adjustment. I guess I was originally thinking that you pivot the motor forward with the bottom mounts tight, but that was incorrect. I searched quite a bit - there is no write-up I can find anywhere that gives instructions or tips 7 tricks for setting/adjusting C2C.
I still want to learn the relationship between belt wear and deflection.
The range is 0.53" to 0.65".
I'm assuming that the 0.65" is for new belts, and as the belt wears down some, you would decrease the deflection measurement towards 0.53", which is actually increasing deflection, which is needed to compensate for belt wear.
Do I have this correct?
Thx!
