HINT:
wºNew beltº refers to a belt which has been used 5
minutes or less on a running engine.
wºUsed beltº refers to a belt which has been used on a
running engine for 5 minutes or more.
wAfter installing the belt, check that it fits properly i n the
ribbed grooves.
wCheck by hand to confirm that the belt has not slipped
out of the groove on the bottom of the pulley. .
wAfter installing a new belt, run the engine for about 5
minutes and recheck the belt tension.
