Buying Tensionometer & Belt Tension Anyone have a tool part number/source for a Tensionometer? How much should one cost? I will be putting a call into Kent-Moore in the AM. They aren't answering the phones right now..
What is the normal Belt Tension for a new belt? 120#? Is 120# ok for the pulley bearings? What is everyone's opinion on the Katech Adjustable Tensioner?
Thx!
