Adjustments
29.Loading Door Strike (200 Pound
Models)
The loading door strike must be adjusted to have
sufficient tension to hold loading door closed against
force of load tumbling against it. Proper adjustment is
when 8-15 pounds (35.6-66.7 N) pull is required to
open door.
If adjustment is required, refer to Figure 5 and proceed
as follows:
To adjust, open door, loosen adjustment screws and
position strike for desired magnet engagement.
Retighten screws.

30.Belt Drive
The drive assemblies consist of motors, belts, eyebolts
and a step pulley.
The pulley diameters are sized to produce a cylinder
speed of 37-39 RPM for 120 pound models or
29-31 RPM for 170 and 200 pound models.
The step pulley assembly is used for speed reduction
as well as a means of adjusting belt tension. The pulley
mounting plate is attached to the cabinet. The frame
mounting plate has vertically slotted holes allowing up
and down movement of the step pulley mounting plate
for belt adjustment.
Adjust the belt tension as follows:
1. Disconnect electrical power to the tumble dryer
before attempting any adjustments to the drive
assembly.
2. Loosen pulley mounting plate bolts.
3. Loosen the upper nut on the final drive eyebolt.
4. Rotate the lower nut of the final drive eyebolt
clockwise until proper belt tension is achieved.
5. Rotate upper nut clockwise against the lower nut
in order to lock it into place.
6. Tighten pulley mounting plate bolts. Recheck
belt tension.
7. If necessary, adjust the drive motor belt tension
eyebolt using a similar procedure.
8. Adjust blower belt tension on 120 pound
50 Hertz tumble dryers and all 170 pound tumble
dryers using a similar procedure.
NOTE: Proper tensions for new belts are measured
with a Belt Tension Gauge:
Using a Belt Tension Gauge, the motor belt
deflection should be 0.31 inch at five pounds
pressure, and final drive belt deflection should be
0.25 inch at five pounds pressure.
Belts should not slip or make any noise when starting
up under normal load.
