exchangeIllustration 2:Wearing off of the bluelayerReplacing the Sprockets when they have been damagedThe sprockets always need to be replaced if they have been damaged through severe useor exterior influences. If you ride over a rock, or a tree trunk, for example, and you bottomout hard with the front sprocket, it might deform and would have to be replaced. Stonescaught between belt and sprocket can cause damage to the teeth of the belt. Teeth mightbreak off partially or completely. When this happens, the particular sprocket has to bereplaced. Whether or not the belt has to be replaced would have to be determined withthe criteria mentioned above (Replacing the belt after it has been damaged).Replacing belt and sprockets because of abrasionBoth the belt and sprockets are parts that abrade or wear. Contrary to what you mightexpect, tests have shown that the belt tends to have a slightly longer life expectancythan the sprockets. You can check the abrasion of belt and sprockets with the ProfileWear Gauge as shown in illustrations 3 and 4. If the gauge result is equal to, or larger than0.5mm, the particular belt or sprocket will need to be replaced. For a drive system in whichall components have been used for the same amount of time it is recommended to replaceall components, as soon as one of them needs to be replaced because of wear or abrasion.You can find further information about the use of your Profile Wear Gauge in the separatemanual.32
