Checking Drive BeltsEBS00KN7
WARNING:
Be sure to perform when the engine is stopped.
●Make sure that the indicator (single line notch on fixed side) of drive belt auto-tensioner is within the pos-
sible use range (between three line notches on moving side).
NOTE:
●Check the drive belt auto-tensioner indicator (single line notch on fixed side) when the engine is cold.
●When the new drive belt is installed, the indicator (single line notch on fixed side) should be within the
range A.
●Visually check entire belt for wear, damage or cracks.
●If the indicator (single line notch on fixed side) is out of possible use range or belt is damaged, replace the
belt.
Tension AdjustmentEBS00KN8
Belt tensioning is not necessary, as it is automatically adjusted by drive belt auto-tensioner.
Removal and InstallationEBS00KN9
REMOVAL
1. Remove splash cover on RH undercover.
2. With box wrench, and while securely holding the hexagonal part
in pulley center of drive belt auto-tensioner, move the wrench
handle in the direction of arrow (loosening direction of ten-
sioner).
CAUTION:
Avoid placing hand in a location where pinching may occur
if the holding tool accidentally comes off.
3. Insert a rod approximately 6 mm (0.24 in) in diameter into retain-
ing boss to fix auto-tensioner pulley.
●Leave auto-tensioner pulley arm locked until belt is installed
again.
4. Loosen drive belt from water pump pulley in sequence, and remove it.
