July 1: So it begins. Don't worry, this is not in the correct legal jurisdiction!

Drive Belt

Drive belts must not be cracked, glazed or oily, and must be set at proper tension. A glazed belt may slip even though belt is not loose.

NOTE: Excessive drive belt tension can cause bearing or case failure. Do NOT overtighten to correct for slippage.
