CAUTION: • When the tension and frequency are measured, the acoustic tension gauge should be used. crankshaft two turns or more, readjust to the specified value to avoid variation in deflection between DRIVE BELT : Tension Adjustment INFOID:0000000006057328 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”. 1. Remove front fender protector (RH). Refer to EXT-17, "FENDER PROTECTOR : Exploded View" . 2. Loosen the idler pulley lock nut (A) from the tightening position CAUTION: • When the lock nut is loosened excessively, the idler pulley tilts and the correct tension adjust- ment cannot be performed. Never loosen it excessively (more than 45 degrees). 1 : Alternator 2 : Water pump 3 : Crankshaft pulley 4 : A/C compressor (With A/C models) 5 : Idler pulley 6 : Drive belt Belt Deflection/Belt Tension and Frequency: Refer to PBIC3642E Location Location of adjuster and tightening method Drive belt Adjusting bolt on idler pulley 1 : Alternator 2 : Water pump 3 : Crankshaft pulley 4 : A/C compressor (with A/C models) 5 : Idler pulley 6 : Drive belt PBIC3643E |
