METHOD FOR CHECKING FAN BELT TENSION AND REPLACING FAN BELT

The opening and closing (tilting) operation of the floor is necessary when performing this mainte-
nance, and it may cause serious personal injury or death.
Before opening and closing of the floor, thoroughly read , and then start the operation, or ask your
Komatsu distributor to perform the work.
Immediately after the engine is stopped, its parts and oil are still very hot and may cause burn in-
jury.
Wait for the temperature to go down, and then start the work.
1.
Pull the engine rear cover (1) backward to open it.
Open the engine rear cover (1) fully and it is secured by
rod (2).
2.
Check the fan belt tension.
Press the belt with a finger at a point midway between the
crank pulley and fan pulley. (approximately 98 N {approxi-
mately 10 kg} )
If deflection is in the standard range (9 to 13 mm), the fan
belt tension is correct.
