6 Maintenance

Checking the V-belt

Every 500 operating hours.

38 Inspection V-belt

• Inspect the belt for wear and tear (fraying

and cracking). Belts which are in poor con-
dition should be replaced.

39 Checking tension

• Check tension of the V-belt by applying

moderate finger and thumb pressure. If the
deflection of the belt is more than 12 mm
(1/2”), using about 10 kg (20 lbs) thumb
pressure, it should be tensioned.

40 Tensioning V-belt

• Loosen the bolt of the adjustment bracket

and both the alternator mounting bolts.
Now push the alternator outwards until the
belt tension is correct.

• Now first re-tighten the upper mounting

bolt of the alternator.

• Then re-tighten the bolt of the adjustment

bracket and the lower mounting bolt.
