For checking the cover band:
Check the cover band after every 2000 km of operating distance.
Waves on the cover band are a sign of wear on the band diverter.
If there is any wave formation, retension the cover band as follows:
1. Loosen screws aD (è Fig. 10).
2. Push the cover band into the cover.
3. Retighten the screws with 2 Nm.
If the cover band can no longer be retensioned, the wear on the band diverters is too great, and they
must be replaced (spare parts è www.festo.com/spareparts).
