Removal and Replacement




Drive Belt Replacement

1. Set a socket wrench on the drive belt auto-tensioner (A), and slowly turn the wrench in the direction of the rotation arrow, then remove the drive belt.

NOTE: This is a hydraulic type auto-tensioner, so you must turn the wrench slowly for at least 3 seconds.





2. Install the new belt in the reverse order of removal.
