24.5.4 CHECK TENSION OF FAN BELT, ADJUST
CHECKING
The deflection of the belt should be approx. 10 to 15 mm (0.4 to
0.6 in) when pressed with a finger force of approx. 59 N (6 kgf) (13
lb) at a point midway between the fan pulley and the alternator
pulley.
ADJUSTING
1. Loosen bolt 1 and nut 2. And move alternator 3.
2. Check each pulley for damage, wear of the groove, and wear of
the belt. In particular, be sure to check that the belt is not
touching the bottom of the groove.
3. Replace the belt if it has stretched, leaving no allowance for
adjustment, or if there is any cut or crack on belt.
4. When fixing, insert a piece of wood between the bar and
alternator to prevent damage to the alternator.
5. When replacing the V-belt, adjust the tension again after oper-
ating for one hour.
