Bremshey (Tunturi) Orbit Control S elliptical belt alignment

The belt keeps easing over to the inside edge of the pulley and rubbing against the tension bar, shaving rubber while increasing noise and resistance. The belt was replaced under warranty by a certified technician due to this problem but now after a few years of storage it is happening again. The axle bearing apparently has enough play to cause this problem on the down-stroke, and the pulley lacks a tapered inside lip to prevent movement beyond the inner rib. If no one has a solution, I will try to find a snap-ring large enough to slot in there.

    A single 1-3/8" (ID) snap ring on the innermost rib did the trick!

Bremshey treadmill error code ML579

I had the same thing happen to my Bremshey Course-S treadmill. Bremshey is no longer sold/serviced in North America. They are owned by Tunturi New Fitness (tunturi.com), out of the Netherlands. After contacting Tunturi directly, they confirmed:

ML579 error code indicates a defect in the lower control board and therefore it must be replaced in its entirety. However the POWER BOARD 110V, Bremshey PACER CONTROL, Course-S, which corresponds to spare part number 403.4188 is neither in stock nor any longer available; the latter implies the end of manufacturing and no suitable alternative is found.

You can see the parts diagram/list in the manual (see https://ecatalogs.plytix.com/611f6197d1a7b816412ba30f/product_page/5fd7a4b7f9c3b305ed694afd).

1991 plymoth acclaim 4 cylinder and my serpetine belt keeps sliding off the drive pulley right out of the grooves of the pulley. tention is tight but not over tightened. I have replace the automatic...

When pulleys are in alignment in both planes - check with a straight edge laid against the face of the pulley - the belt shouldn't come off.
By alignment in both planes it means the pulley grooves should be exactly inline with each other and the shafts the pulleys are mounted on should be perfectly parallel with each other - in addition the belt grooves should be in good condition and each pulley should be round and unbuckled.

In the old days it was necessary to adjust pulley alignment with shims and as many pulleys were pressed steel, a few were egg-shaped by small amounts and usually due to rough handling, some were like a buckled bicycle wheel.
It is many years since those checks had to be made as part of building an engine though whenever a belt-related problem is encountered it is time to dust off the old methods.

When the belt runs true it doesn't come off but there is another reason why a belt doesn't run true and that is belt chatter that is caused by a defective torsional vibration damper or crankshaft harmonic damper...

Relacing the belt on my cplc 7060v compressor it is a groved belt my question is it tends to want to walk off the pump pully, is there a proceedure to properly allign the new belt and tighten it with...

hi kbarna12776.
To align the two pulley to prevent "walk off" use a straight edge tool and square to make sure the two pulleys are in alinement.
You will start by putting the straight edge tool against the two pulleys and check the straight alignment, and the square.
You will normally adjust the motor to square the pulleys.
The compressor and its pulley stays locked in place.
You may have to use metal spacers under the motor to acheive this alignment.
The proper belt tension on the belt will be when you tighten the belt to where when you push down on the belt with one of your fingers or your thumb and you can only deflect the belt approx. 3/4 inch.
When you have the motor and pulleys aligned and the belt adjusted you will be good to go.
Please take time to rate me highly

Could be that the belt is sliding against the wall of the wheel (against the ridge/lip). This is because your wheel is probably not level. This is usualy caused by wear, or because the wheel was moved or adjusted on purpose and not levelled or aligned correctly.

A 1: If your wheel is not level, the belt going around the wheel will inevitably migrate towards the edge of the wheel stand in front of the machine and look straight down at the wheel while it is motion (spinning), you should be able to see if it (the belt) is moving.

If, however your wheel is bent, this could cause the same problem. However, this is no quick fix. It will generally mean replacing the wheel

A 2: In order to recognize if your wheel is bent, stand in front of the machine and look straight down at the wheel while it is in motion. You should be able to see a, "Wobbling" in the wheel, indicating its condition.

My 93 grand voyager keeps kicking off the serpintine belt right after I start it, what can cause this?

hi either the belt is stretched and needs replacing or one of the pulley's are out of alignment either due to wear or just loose, check the pulley's on the engine to see if this is the problem, you also can get a straight edge and hold it against the pulley's and seeing if anything is out, just give them a pull up and down to see if they are loose...hope this helps
