This V-belt transmits power from the drive system to the straw chopper assembly on a combine harvester. It is a two-rib belt with a pitch length of 3530 mm, designed to maintain tension and alignment under the variable loads of harvesting. A worn or slipping belt reduces chopper speed, leading to uneven straw distribution and increased load on the drive bearings. As an Optibelt original component, it matches the original belt's cross-section and length, ensuring correct tension without requiring shimming or pulley adjustment. On installation, verify the belt sits fully in the pulley grooves and adjust tension to the specified deflection.
