• With your thumbs, apply pressure to the belt (

1

),

where  the  tension  gauge  (

2

)  sits,  toward  the

tensioner pulley (

3

). See Figure 43.

Figure 43

Recommended

 

setting

:  Required  belt  tension

is 11 mm  (7/16'') of play,  which corresponds to

the  width  of  the  red  tension  gauge  in  the

tensioner mechanism. See Figure 44.

Figure 44

Syncrodrive Belt Tension Adjustment

• Loosen tensioner pulley nut (

1

) ½ to ¾ turn. See

Figure 45.

IMPORTANT

:  Do  not  loosen  tensioner  pulley  nut

(

1

)  more  than  ½  to  ¾  turn.  If  the  nut  is  too  loose

during  the  adjustment  process,  the  belt  tension

could increase when the nut is tightened back. 

• Loosen lock nut (

2

) on Belt Tensioner adjusting

bolt. See Figure 45.

• Rotate Belt Tensioner adjusting bolt (

3

) to raise

or lower belt tension. See Figure 45.

Figure 45

• Tighten  tensioner  pulley  nut  (

1

)  back  to  55  Nm

(38 lb-ft) of torque. See Figure 45.

• Verify  tension  adjustment.  Repeat  previous

steps if tension is found insufficient.
