Follow the steps to fill out the Browning Belt Tension Checker online

1. Click the ‘Get Form’ button to access the form and open it in your editing interface.
2. Begin by measuring the belt span as specified in the provided sketch. Make sure to note the measurement for accuracy.
3. Position the bottom of the large 'O' ring on the span scale at the measured belt span.
4. Set the small 'O' ring on the deflection force scale to zero to prepare for your measurement.
5. Place the tension checker squarely on the belt at the center of the span. Apply force on the plunger perpendicular to the belt span until the bottom of the large 'O' ring is even with the top of the adjacent belt or the bottom of a straight edge laid across the outside diameters of the sheaves.
6. After applying the force, compare it with the values indicated in the chart provided for your specific belt type and size. Ensure the force is within the minimum and maximum values for proper tension.
7. Remove the tension checker and read the force applied from the bottom of the small 'O' ring on the deflection force scale, noting the value.
8. If possible, jog start for a few revolutions or run the drive for approximately 1-3 minutes and retension according to the previous steps to ensure optimal performance.
9. Finally, once you have completed the form and checked your measurements, you can choose to save your changes, download, print, or share the form as needed.
