The spring-loaded belt tensioner automatically adjusts
to correct belt tension and this makes for quieter belt
transmission, among other things.
As a result of the selected geometry in the tensioner
movement the belts slacken when the engine switches
off and the mass force in the fan draws the belt trans-
mission. This eases up tensions on the other compo-
nents in the fan transmission.
Tension is created by means of the four rubber ele-
ments (rods) mounted between the two square pipes.
Belt tensioning
The tensioner has a scale. Adjust the pre-tension to 15
°
on the scale. This corresponds to correct belt tension-
ing. Tighten up the lock bolt.
2.
With incorrect relationship between the belt ten-
sioner and pulleys, adjust the belt tensioner posi-
tion.
3.
Tension the drive belts as shown in the Fig. Tight-
en the lock bolt and check the belt tensioner posi-
tion again according to pos. 1.

Adjusting drive belts
1.
Check to make sure that the tension on the fan
drive belts is correct: 13–14 mm deflection at 50 N
(5 kp) midway between the pulleys. Check pulleys
inter-level with a straight edge.
Check-tighten the drive belt tension twice: Check 1 af-
ter 500–1500 km; check 2 after 3000–5000 km.
