Timing Belt: Adjustments

1. Ensure timing marks on each sprocket are aligned with corresponding timing mark on the front case.




2. Position tensioner "B" with center of pulley located on the left side of mounting bolt and with pulley flange directed toward front of engine.




3. Lift tensioner "B" to tighten timing belt "B" so that its tension side will be pulled tight. In this condition, tighten bolt to secure tensioner "B".

CAUTION: When bolt is tightened, use care to prevent shaft from turning together. If shaft is turned together, belt will be over-tightened.

4. Ensure that timing marks are in alignment.
5. Ensure that when center of span on the tension side is depressed with index finger in direction of arrow, deflection of belt is within specification.
Belt deflection, 5-7 mm (0.2-0.3 inch).
