Check the Fan Belt
•
Never touch a rotating part such as the fan belt, etc. with the engine running. There is
the danger of your finger being cut off.
•
To help avoid being injury, check and adjust the fan belt tension with engine stopped.
•
Parts are hot immediately after the engine stops. You may get burnt. Wait until each
part cools down.
1. Inspect belt tension.
When slackness is measured by applying a force of
110 N (11 kgf) to the pulley's intermediate position, it is
necessary to adjust the belt tension if the slackness
exceeds the belt thickness.
2. If there are scratches and/or cracks on the belt, change
the belt.
There is a mechanism to automatically adjust the fan belt
tension by the spring-loaded belt tensioner pulley.
If it is necessary to adjust the belt tension or change the
belt, please contact IHI's sales service dealer.
