A belt tension indicating system (22) for indicating the belt tension of a belt driven machine (10) includes a belt tension indicating assembly (24) and a hydraulic ram assembly (60) to provide the belt tension. The hydraulic ram assembly (60) is connected between an idler wheel (14) of the machine (10) and the belt tension indicating assembly (22). When the belt tension decreases below a predetermined value, the belt tension indicating assembly (22) activates a switch (46) which then activates a horn, light or other device to alert the machine operator.

L'ensemble vérin hydraulique (60) est connecté entre une roue intermédiaire (14) de la machine (10) et l'ensemble (22) indiquant la tension de la courroie. Lorsque la tension de la courroie diminue en-deçà d'une valeur prédéterminée l'ensemble (22) qui indique la tension de la courroie active un commutateur (46) qui à son tour active une alarme sonore, un voyant lumineux ou un autre dispositif qui sert à alerter le conducteur de la machine.
