3.1 Inspecting V-pulley
Check the V-belt groove of the pulley for wear. Attach a
new V-belt around a worn pulley, apply a high tension to the
belt, and check whether the top surface of the belt is outside
or inside of the pulley groove to determine the degree of
pulley groove wear.
When the top surface of V-belt is outside the pulley groove,
and the degree of wear is almost the same for every groove
(when pulley has two belt grooves or more), the remaining
service life of the pulley can be considered sufficient.
If the wear appears excessive, and the belt top surface sinks
1.6 mm or more down from the top edge of groove, the
pulley is not reusable. Replace the pulley with a new one.

3.2 Inspecting oil seal contact surface
Inspect the oil seal contact surface of the pulley. If the
pulley waers due to oil seal, replace the pulley with new
one.
3.3 Measuring clearance between idler bush-
ing and idler shaft
Measure the inside diameter of the idler bushing and outside
diameter of the idler shaft. Replace the bushing if the
clearance exceeds the limit.

3.4 Replacing idler bushing
(1)
Use the idler bushing puller to replace idler bushing.
(2) To install the bushing, drive it from the boss side so that
it is flush with the gear boss face.
(3) After installing the bushing, measure the bushing inside
diameter, and if the inside diameter exceeds the
standard, ream the bushing.
