While the belt itself does not have operational controls, its proper function is crucial for your snowblower's operation. Ensure the belt is correctly installed and tensioned before each use. Avoid operating the snowblower with a damaged or improperly installed belt, as this can lead to further damage or unsafe conditions.
6. Vedligeholdelse

- Visuel inspektion: Periodically inspect the belt for signs of wear, cracks, fraying, glazing, or stretching. Replace the belt if any damage is observed.
- Spændingskontrol: Ensure the belt maintains proper tension. A loose belt can slip, reducing efficiency, while an overly tight belt can cause premature wear on the belt and pulleys.
- Renhed: Keep the belt and pulleys free from dirt, debris, ice, and oil. Contaminants can cause slippage and accelerate wear.
- Opbevaring: If storing the snowblower for an extended period, consider relieving tension on the belt to prevent permanent stretching or deformation.
