Forester CTR 1000 H

Need a bit of help people!!

Running a Forester CTR1000 2015 model, great machine but doing my head in due to the fact it's throwing blades off!!! Tried all the usual things to cure it ie checked the tracking, new guide rollers, level of the tensioing wheel, wheel belts seem flat and smooth!!

The tensioning wheel does seem to have a lot of balancing weights on it not sure if this is normal?

if anyone has any suggestions I would be truly great full!!!!

It's usually down to tracking. Are you able to track both wheels independently? I find on mine that the tracking is quite sensitive and alters with tension ,so with half tension it looks miles out but when the band is fully tensioned, everything falls into line. Both wheels have to be adjusted. 

There looks to be a lot of weights on your wheel but that shouldn't affect the band being thrown off. They are just for balancing the cast wheel. I assume you have rubber tyres on the wheels, these should be slightly crowned, I think. Flat wheels will allow the band to wander.
