The belt drive has two components, and is subdivided into the
main and A/C drives.
Both V-belts are driven by the crankshaft pulley.
A 4-V-belt is used for the air conditioning belt drive, and a
6-V-belt is used for the main drive.
Each belt drive has a tensioning unit with tensioning pulley and
torsioner.
The belt drive needs no maintenance.
To disassemble the V-belt, the tensioning pulley is pushed back
using a Torx tool (1) and fixed in this position using a peg (2).
