The Optibelt 4-B 1600 is a banded V-belt from the KB VB series, with a length of 1600 mm. Banded construction ties multiple V-belts together so they run as one unit on multi-groove drives. Before fitting a replacement, inspect the drive and sheaves.
Check sheave grooves for wear, burrs, or debris that can cut into a new belt. Confirm the sheaves are aligned and the grooves are clean and dry. Spin the sheaves by hand and check bearings for roughness or play. Verify the take-up or tensioning range has enough travel for a 1600 mm belt. If any sheave is worn or damaged, correct it before installing the new belt.
Banded V-belts are matched at the factory as a set, so replace the complete belt. Do not mix old and new belts on the same drive. When fitting the Optibelt 4-B 1600, loosen the tensioner, walk the belt into the grooves without prying it over the sheave flange, then tension per the drive manufacturer's specification. Recheck tension after the first hours of running and again after the drive has reached operating temperature.
