Ksc 60 eb belt tension

[Andy-Hickton]

Hi
What is the belt deflection on a KSC 60?View attachment 1
I have had to replace the casting that the motor mounts onto, as the motor was snapped off. If I pinch the belt together when mounted what size gap[attachimg=1] should I aim at.
Thanks in advance
Andy

Didn't the KSC 60 come out in September, 2022?  Why not have it repaired under warranty?

The casting was broken due to a collision from a unsecured site box . Amazingly this was the only damage. As there appeared to be no visible flaw in the exposed casting such as blow holes. I cannot justify expecting Festool to cover the cost of replacing & adjusting.

Festool warranty covers wear and tear and accidents, to my knowledge.  I would imagine if you called Festool, even though they did not repair it, they likely have someone who can tell you the proper belt tension.
