The Optibelt Super X-Power 5VX 550 is a cogged narrow V-belt in the 5VX profile with a length of 1397 mm. Before fitting it, inspect the drive and sheaves so the new belt seats and runs correctly.
Check sheave grooves for wear, rust, and embedded debris. Worn or damaged grooves can shorten belt life and cause slipping or vibration even when the replacement belt is correct. Confirm the sheaves are aligned and the drive is isolated and locked out before you remove the old belt.
Compare the marking on the back of the old belt with the Optibelt Super X-Power 5VX 550. The 5VX profile and 1397 mm length identify this belt; the same size is also listed under Dayco 5VX 550. If the old marking is unreadable, measure the outside length and check the sheave groove width to confirm the 5VX profile.
After fitting, check tension and recheck it after the first run-in period. Inspect the drive for unusual noise, heat, or vibration, and correct any sheave or alignment problem before returning the drive to service.
