pulley, at the same time turn the head using an 18 mm spanner.
note: after having assembled the belt, make sure that each rib of the belt coincides
with its corresponding slot on the pulleys.
10) Re-fit the "Right side guard" and the "Drill guard".
11) introduce the blocking rod into the hole of the drill shaft.

14) remove the belt. to do that, manually turn the pulleys while forcing the belt si-
deways.
15) unscrew the 4 screws (11) that retain the "motor support".
16) Remove the motor together with the "motor support".
17) Unscrew the 4 screws (12) that retain the "motor support", and remove the old
motor.
18) unscrew the retaining stud (13) that retains the small pulley on the motor, and
remove the small pulley.
19) completely insert the small pulley onto the new motor. in this position, screw on
the small pulley using the retaining stud (13), taking care that the retaining stud is fitted
in its slot on the motor axle.
20) Place the new motor on the "motor support", so that the sides of the motor base
are tight up against the heads of the screws protruding from the "motor support" In this
position fix the motor using the 4 screws (12).
21) Fix the "motor support" to the plate using the 4 screws (11). Take care and gently
tighten the screws, because there are some rubber washers between the "motor su-
pport" and the plate that should not be over-tightened.
22) tighten the nuts of the bottom part of the plate that act as counter-nuts to the
screws fixing the "motor support" to the plate.
22) assemble the new belt. the method for doing this is explained in point 4.7 of this
manual.
