NOTE: This setting is correct as a pre-
liminary adjustment for most models
and belt types. In some cases, when
starting the engine, the vehicle could
creep, indicating that the belt is too
tight.
If the vehicle creeps, lower the drive
belt height from the preliminary set-
ting. Repeat procedure until creeping
stops.
Reverse Activation
NOTE: The reverse may not activate
or may be harder to activate if the belt
is positioned too high in the driven pul-
ley. If reverse activation does not work
properly, ensure the drive belt is prop-
erly adjusted. Adjust the drive belt
lower in the driven pulley if needed.
