1 Do not expose belts to direct sunlight during storage.

2 Store belts in shelves or hang belts on racks. Placing belts on floor or ground. Avoid piling belts up. Avoid storing belts in heavily bent condition.

3 Use bigger pulley to reduce heat during operation.

4 Check sheave alignment. Misalignment of sheave will shorten the belt life.

5 Make sure all sheave groove are equal in dimensions.

6 Check sheaves for groove wear. If more than 1/32 inch of "Dished Out" can be seen, short belt life may be expected.

7 Avoid using idler(middle pulley). If unavoidable put on the inside of the slack side.

8 Check bearings for oil.

9 Slack off on take-up until belts can be placed in grooves without forcing. Never pry the belts in to the sheave grooves to prevent cords break.

10 Tension drive properly. Give belts a few days running time to become seated in sheave grooves, then readjust take-up if necessary.

11 Use mor belts than calculated number to increase safety factor and belt life and in the end more economical.

12 Always use a set of new belts from one manufacture a set of belt. Mixing new and used belts in a set will shorten the belt life due to unequal stretch of belts.

13 Never use belt dressing. Be careful not to expose belts to oil, dust or chemicals.

14 Make sure V-Belt drives are covered for safety before turning the machine on. Air tight cover shortens the belt life because it prevents heat radiation. Maintain proper ventilation.
