TIMING BELT B/TIMING BELT B TENSIONER
INSTALLATION
1. Install timing belt B by the following procedure.
(1) Ensure that crankshaft sprocket B timing mark and
the counterbalance shaft sprocket timing mark are
aligned.
(2) Fit timing belt B over crankshaft sprocket B and the
counterbalance shaft sprocket. Ensure that there is
no slack in the belt.
2. Adjust the tension of timing belt B by the following
procedure.
(1) Temporarily fix the timing belt B tensioner such that
the centre of the tensioner pulley is to the left and
above the centre of the installation bolt, and
temporarily attach the tensioner pulley so that the
flange is toward the front of the engine.
(2) Holding the timing belt B tensioner up with your finger
in the direction of the arrow, place pressure on the
timing belt so that the tension side of the belt is taut.
Now tighten the bolt to fix the tensioner.
Caution
When tightening the bolt, ensure that the tensioner
pulley shaft does not rotate with the bolt. Allowing
it to rotate with the bolt can cause excessive
tension on the belt.
3. To ensure that the tension is correct, depress the belt
(point A) with a finger. If not, adjust.
