WARNING
Supply Fan (Belt--Drive)
The supply fa n system consists of a forward--curved
centrifugal blower wheel on a solid shaft with two
concentric type bearings, one on each side of the blower
housing. A fixed--pitch driven pulley is att ached to the fan
shaft and an adjustable --pitch driver pulley is on the
motor. The pulleys are connect ed using a “V” type belt.
(See Fig. 5.)

Belt
Check the belt condition and tension quarterly. Inspect the
belt for signs of cracking, fraying or glazing along the
inside surfaces. Check belt tension by using a spring-force
tool (such as Browning’s Part Number “Belt Tension
Checke r” or equivalent tool); tension should be 6-l bs at a
5/8-in. deflection when measured at the centerline of the
belt span. This point is at the center of the belt when
mea suring the distance between the motor shaft and the
blower shaft.
NOTE: Without the spring--tension tool, place a straight
edge across the belt surface at the pulleys, then deflect the
belt at mid--span using one finger to a 1/2-in. deflection.
Adjust belt tension by loosening the motor mounting plate
front bolts and rear bolt and sliding the plate toward the
fan (to reduce tension) or away from fan (to increase
tension). E nsure the blower shaft and the motor shaft are
parallel to each other (pulleys aligned). Tighten all bolts
when finished.
