so just to clarify..this will tighten the secondary so it will grip the belt...I don't have a problem setting the belt height it just wont grip the belt and the belt can be spun by hand.

From your description, what you are seeing is perfectly normal. With the belt at the top and secondary as far closed as the deflection adjuster will allow, there will never be any side presure on the belt...UNTIL the primary clutch grabs it and pulls on it.
