Ring tube tensioners

[House]

Just received the product from Stahls. Looking for some tips on how to assemble and install. Ive worked at a center that had them, but never worked on product. Thanks.

Here is the Stahl's, works great! I ovaled out some 3 1/6 " to a 1/4" and that worked also.

do i have to remove belt tension? support the wheel?

[rivmike]

No the bottoms push down and out.

They're easy to install. Most of the ones I did were while leagues were running on them! I recommend grease on the bushings though.

I was going to say I change them while the machine was running but I did'nt want to get my pee pee slapped by some.

I can't do that and will not.

I've installed them while the machine was running... but i shut off the pit motor while i did the work and whenever they needed pins or their ball back i just turned it back on and paused my work until i shut it off again

do the flanges on the bushings face outward or inward? im green to the setup.

[rivmike]

Out, flange next to the bolt head. The bracket sould move after tightening. I had one the would not move so I had to Lock-Tite it 1/2 turn loose on the slotted bolt. (if that makes sense)
