I am in the process of upgrading my motor for my KMG. Previously I have had the grinder and the motor bolted to the bench in a way that keeps the belt tight. This way has worked for me but I would like to know if mounting the motor to a hinged plate would be better? I was thinking that the hinged mounting plate would move a little if the belt expands or stretches but may cause bearing damage if the motor is too heavy?
