check the belt tension by performing the
"tension test", which consists of pressing the
center area of the belt between the sheaves
(see
Figure 5-1
), to determine the tightness
of the belt.
4. Once the belt shows a suitable "give" (see
footnote in
Figure 5-1
), tighten the cap-
screws [
D
], in a criss-cross pattern, torquing
to 13 ft-lbs.
5.3.2 REPLACING THE BELT
IMPORTANT
The drive system consists of three belts. When
changing belts always change all of the belts at
the same time, regardless of variances between
the condition of a less-worn belt(s) to an obvi-
ously worn belt.
If drive belts need to be replaced, order replace-
ment
belt
no. 282389
(quantity of three [3]).
Refer
to
Figure 5-1
and the following:
1. To replace the belts follow the instructions
above (in
Section 5.4.1
) up to number
2A
.
Loosen the belt enough to disegage the belt
from the pulley system.
2. Route the new belt route over the fan (alter-
nator) side of the drive assembly
fi
rst, then
positon the belt on both sheave tracks as
shown in
Figure 5-1
.
3. Once belts are properly positioned, the belt is
ready to be tightened.
4.
TO TIGHTEN BELT:
Tighten the belts by
nudging the slide plate [
C
] away from
[
]
the
hydraulic motor. Check the belt tension as
this is being performed, until the belt tension
is within the parameters given in the footnote
of
Figure 5-1
.
5. When the proper belt tension is achived,
tighten the capscrews [
D
], in a criss-cross
pattern, torquing to 13 ft-lbs.
