Has anyone ever adjust the cutterhead belt tension on their Graphtec CE-5000? The tensioner is under the left end cap. Three screws to view it. This unit is used but new to me and I figured out that the belt tension is to loose as noted in attached pics. I would like to know first, if the set screw is supposed to be loose and the belt tension is set by the spring. Any help would be greatly appreciated. This is a 2011 unit.

This is my reply from Graphtec Tech Support:
The only screw you need tighten is the Locking Set screw.
Tighten it with the tension spring as normal; no need to push or pull onto on the tension spring.
Thank you,

Curious... What does the tightening do and when would you need to adjust?
