Checking the tension and replacing the drive belts of the alternator
Check only after isolating the positive cable from the battery to prevent a possible
short circuit.
1. Check belt tension. If the flexion is greater than 1 cm with a load of 10 kg,
stretch the belt:
a. Loosen the two alternator fixing bolts.
b. Force the alternator outwards to tension the belt.
c. Tighten the fixing bolts to 25 N·m for the bottom one and 40 N·m for the
upper one using a torque wrench.
2. Check the condition of the belts. If they are damaged or if they are to be
replaced according to the defined program, contact us.
