ON-VEHICLE MAINTENANCE
DRIVE BELTS
CheckingINFOID:0000000005930924
• 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 times 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.
Tension AdjustmentINFOID:0000000005930925
CAUTION:
• When belt is replaced with new one, adjust belt te nsion 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.
1. Loosen the idler pulley lock nut (A) from the tightening position with the specified torque by 45 degrees.

• When the lock nut is loosened
excessively, the idler pulley tilts an d the correct tension adjust-
ment cannot be performed. Never loosen 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 tension adjustment cannot be performed.
3. Tighten the idler pulley lock nut.
Removal and InstallationINFOID:0000000005930926
REMOVAL
1. Loosen the idler pulley lock nut (A), and then adjust the belt ten- sion by turning the adjusting bolt (B).
2. Remove drive belt.
INSTALLATION
1. Pull the idler pulley in the loosening direction, and then tempo- rarily tighten the idler pulley lock nut (A) to the following torque.
NOTE:
Do not move the lock nut from t he tightened position. Proceed to step “2”.
2. Install the drive belt to each pulley. CAUTION:
• Make sure that there is no oil, greas e, or coolant, etc. in pulley grooves.
• Make sure that the belt is securely inside the groove on each pulley.
3. Adjust drive belt tension by turning the adjusting bolt. Refer to EM-13, "
Tension Adjustment".

• Perform the belt tension adjustment with the lock nut temporarily
tightened at the step “1” so as
not to tilt the idler pulley.
• 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.
4. Tighten the idler pulley lock nut.
5. Make sure that belt tension of each belt is within the standard. Idler pulley lock nut : 34.8 N·m (3.5 kg-m, 26 ft-lb)

• If items or work required are not covered by the engine section, follow the procedures in the applica-
ble sections.
• Always use the support poin t specified for lifting.
• Use either 2-pole lift type or separate type lift as best you can. If board-on type is used for unavoid-
able reasons, support at the rear axle jacking point with a transmission jack or similar tool before
starting work, in preparation for the backward shif t of center of gravity.
• For supporting points fo r lifting and jacking point at rear axle, refer to GI-38, "
Garage Jack and
Safety Stand and 2-Pole Lift".
