I read somewhere that the theory of belt drive is that they don't have to be tight anyway - it's the drive that pulls the belt tight onto the pulleys on the side under tension.
Watch a bit of machinery being driven by a power take off with a long canvas belt - the returning belt sags, but the side under tension grips the drums. |
