CAUTION:
  • When belt is replaced with a new one, adjust it to value for "New belt" to accommodate for insufficient adaptability with pulley grooves.
  • When deflection or tension of belt being used exceeds "Limit", adjust it to value for "After adjustment".
  • When checking belt deflection or tension immediately after installation, first adjust it to the specified value. Then, after turning the crankshaft two turns or more, re-adjust to the specified value to avoid variation in deflection between pulleys.
  • When installing belt, make sure that it is correctly engaged with pulley groove.
  • Keep oil and water away from belt.
  • Do not twist or bend belt excessively.
