TM 5-3895-374-24-2 B. Inspection 1. Inspect the drive belts and replace if belts are damaged or broken.  Check the length of each belt in the set to determine if they are identical.  Replace the belts with a matched set if one belt has a different length than the other. 2. Inspect the sheaves for wear or damage.  Replace either or both of them if the damage cannot be repaired. 3. Inspect the electric motor, repair and replace as needed. 4. Inspect the gear reducer according to the instructions in Section 3-9-2. 5. Inspect the pillow block bearings for seals that leak and to determine if the bearing turns smoothly.  Replace if the seals leak or if the bearing is rough. 6. Inspect the shaft coupling sleeve and replace if it is damaged. C. Assembly 1. Install the shaft mounted torque-arm reducer following the procedure for installation in Section 3-9-2.  Add the correct oil to the reducer as necessary. Install the sheave following the instructions in Section 3-9-12. 2. Bolt the electric motor into place on the frame.  The ground strap must be reinstalled to the motor.  Install the shaft coupling flange. 3. Install the two pillow block bearings onto the shaft and position the shaft on the conveyor frame.  Install the fasteners into the bearings.  Complete the installation of the shaft coupling following the directions in Section 3-9-9. 4. Install the sheave onto the drive shaft according to the instructions in Section 3-9-12. 5. Connect the wiring in the junction box following the markings made during disassembly. 6. Install  the  drive  belts  onto  the  sheaves.    Use  the  torque  arm  and  tension  the  belts  properly.    Check  the alignment  using  a  straight  edge  along  the  face  of  the  sheaves.    The  straight  edge  should  touch  at  both edges of both sheaves.  If not, adjust the sheaves until aligned. 7.
