clutch pulley alignment

[scotty747]

I calibrated the Lazer and stuck it right on so I didnt knock it out of alignment. Looks like the top of the pulley needs to move back. Do I do that by adjusting the shaft?

Thanks Dwain. The belt jumps to the back of the pulley. How do you raise and lower the shaft?

What machine are you working on?

When i installed frankinstien i had to fabricate a rear mount from cleanco parts to allow me to raise and lower and move right or left the machine end of the driveshaft to align

Si this is a hydramaster, all my experience is with straight shaft machines steamgeni, cleanco, butler, etc. Im not familiar with hydramaster. But somewhere there has to be an adjustment to tilt the clutch with straight shaft machines you raise or lower the rear mount to tilt the clutch up or down

 

[Dwain Ray]

Somehow your clutch needs to be tilted up to make the target and laser lines parallel once they are parallel then adjusted in or out till target and laser lines are together

Maybe this wording will help. The laser is showing you how the clutch needs move and to angle to align parallel to the alternator
