Hi all,
I picked up a new HF 4x6 (62377) and I'm trying to get the drive belt tension correct. The instructions say 1/2" deflection when pushed with thumb. At this tension the belt and pulleys are getting very warm (would probably melt the belt if I left it), and a dust of belt rubber is coming off and motor gets is getting warm. Also getting slight squeal which sounds like the belt. This is all happening with not load on the saw blade. I'm just trying to get everything adjusted. I have the pulley heights set level with each other, I've checked and changed the gear box oil and everything seems free and ok except this issue.?
Thanks,
Rob
