Belt Maintenance

Servicing the Alternator Belt

Service Interval: After the first 10 hours
Every 100 hours
Check the condition and tension of the belt (Figure 69) after
every 100 operating hours.
1. Proper tension will allow 10 mm (3/8 inch) deflection
when a force of 44 N (10 lb) is applied on the belt
midway between the pulleys.
2. If the deflection is not 10 mm (3/8 inch), loosen the
alternator mounting bolts (Figure 69). Increase or
decrease the alternator belt tension and tighten the
bolts. Check the deflection of the belt again to ensure
that the tension is correct.
