Installation (Motor Belt Replacement)
Follow these steps to safely replace the motor belt on your Rex RX-518 sewing machine:
- Turvallisuus ennen kaikkea: Ensure the sewing machine is unplugged from the power outlet before beginning any installation or maintenance.
- Access the Motor Area: Depending on your machine's design, you may need to open a cover or panel to access the motor and belt assembly. Refer to your Rex RX-518 sewing machine's primary manual for specific instructions on accessing this area.
- Irrota vanha hihna: Carefully disengage the old belt from the motor pulley and the machine's drive wheel. Note the path of the belt for easier installation of the new one.
- Asenna uusi hihna: Place the new Rex RX-518 motor belt around the smaller motor pulley first, then stretch it over the larger drive wheel of the sewing machine. Ensure the ribbed side of the belt engages correctly with the pulleys.
- Säädä hihnan kireyttä: The belt should be taut enough to prevent slipping but not so tight that it strains the motor or machine bearings. There is typically an adjustment mechanism (often a bolt on the motor mount) that allows you to slide the motor slightly to achieve the correct tension. A common test is to press on the belt midway between the pulleys; it should deflect slightly (e.g., about 1/4 to 1/2 inch).
- Suojatut komponentit: Once the tension is set, tighten any loosened bolts or screws. Replace any covers or panels that were removed.
- Testauksen toiminnallisuus: Plug the machine back in and perform a slow test run to ensure the belt operates smoothly without slipping or excessive noise.
Operation with New Belt
After successful installation and tension adjustment, the motor belt will facilitate the proper operation of your Rex RX-518 Portable Blindstitch Sewing Machine. The belt's function is automatic once the machine is powered on and engaged. If you notice any unusual noises, slipping, or a lack of power transmission, refer to the Troubleshooting section.

Regular maintenance of your motor belt can extend its lifespan and ensure consistent machine performance:
- Tarkista säännöllisesti: Periodically check the belt for signs of wear, cracking, fraying, or glazing. Replace the belt if any significant damage is observed.
- Tarkista kireys: Over time, belt tension can change. Re-check and adjust the tension as needed to prevent slipping or undue stress on the motor and machine.
- Pidä puhtaana: Ensure the belt and pulleys are free from lint, dust, oil, or other debris that could cause slipping or premature wear. Use a dry cloth to gently wipe the belt and pulley surfaces.
