DRIVE BELT
DRIVE BELT : Checking INFOID:0000000004806005
• Inspection should be done only when engine is cold or over 30 minutes after the engine is stopped.
• Visually check belts for wear, damage, and cracks on inside and edges.
• Turn crankshaft pulley two time clockwise, and make sure tension on all pulleys is equal before doing the test.
• When measuring deflection, apply 98 N (10 kg, 22 lb) at the ( ) marked point.
• Measure the belt tension and frequency with acous tic tension gauge at the ( ) marked point.
CAUTION:
• When the tension and frequency are measured, the acoustic tension gauge should be used.
• When checking immediately after installation, first ad just it to the specified value. Then, after turning
crankshaft two turns or more, re-adjust to the sp ecified value to avoid variation in deflection
between pulleys.
DRIVE BELT : Tension Adjustment INFOID:0000000004806006
CAUTION:
• When belt is replaced with new one, adjust belt tension to the value for “New belt”, because new belt
will not fully seat in the pulley groove.
• When tension of the belt being used exceeds “Limit”, adjust it to the value for “After adjusted”.
• When installing a belt, make sure it is correctly engaged with the pulley groove.
• Never allow oil or engine coolant to get on the belt.
• Never twist or bend the belt strongly.

• When the lock nut is loosened excessively, the idle
r pulley tilts and the correct tension adjust-
ment cannot be performed. Never loo sen it excessively (more than 45 degrees).
• Put a matching mark on the lock nut, and check turning angle with a protractor. Never visually
check the tightening angle.
2. Adjust the belt tension by turning the adjusting bolt. CAUTION:
• When checking immediately after in stallation, first adjust it to the specified value. Then, after
turning crankshaft two turns or more, re-adjust to the specified value to avoid variation in deflec-
tion between pulleys.
• When the tension adjustment is performed, the lo ck nut should be in the condition at step“2”. If
the tension adjustment is performed when the lo ck nut is loosened more than the standard, the
idler pulley tilts and the correct tens ion adjustment cannot be performed.
