This is not normal. Gates switched there idler pulley design. This new design, we have found some bearings not pressed in all the way or crooked, which this may have. We are testing other suppliers now, but in the meantime, we are now repressing all bearings in and spin testing each before shipping.Thanks for letting me know the "surge" is normal. I am having so much fun with this thing.:lol:
Here is a video of the walk.
I already removed all three idler pulleys and checked everything then retorqued. I have looked close at the belt but will make sure they are all on the right rib. Maybe against the front guide? For all grooved pulleys?
I think you were working with Mike and we were sending you new pulleys?
