Mike
Job Details: 07/24/2024
"Found that one side of the pulley that retracts the belt had come off and caused the belt to come off track. Was able to get pulley back in place and secure it with loctite per directions, and got belt back on track. Found that sometimes the hood was binding up on the left side and may have caused the belt to come off like it did. I greased up the slides and tested hood multiple times and it is retracting and extending properly.
