Reason

Conveyor belts on the power express were reported to be breaking prematurely (Less than 6 months after installation). This was traced to a cap screw on the belt tensioner, which may rotate from vibrations and loosen the conveyor belt, causing it to skip over the toothed pulley, thus damaging the belt.
