Adjustments

Alternator Belt Adjustment

Make sure belt is properly tensioned to assure the prop-
er operation of the machine and prevent unnecessary
wear. On new belts, check tension after 8 hours of op-
eration.
The engine belt should be tensioned so it deflects 0.20
inch (5 mm) with a 2–3 pound (9 to 13 N) load applied
midway between the crankshaft and alternator pulley.
1. Loosen bolts securing the alternator to the engine
and adjusting bracket.
2. Adjust belt to proper tension and tighten bolts.

Valve Clearance Adjustment

Initially, adjust valves after the first 50 hours of operation
and every 400 hours thereafter.
1. Remove cylinder head cover from the engine.
Note: Adjust valves when engine is cold.
2. Set No. 1 cylinder to the top dead center and adjust
the clearances of intake and exhaust valves of No. 1 cyl-
inder, exhaust valve of No. 2 cylinder, and the intake
valve of No. 3 cylinder. Adjust clearances of both intake
and exhaust valves to 0.007 inch (0.18mm).
3. Turn crankshaft clockwise 360_ (viewed from front)
to adjust the clearance of intake valve of the No. 2 cylin-
der and exhaust valves of No. 3 cylinder. Adjust clear-
ance of both intake and exhaust valves to 0.007 inch
(0.18mm).
4. Install cylinder head cover and gasket. Torque cover
screws to 60 in–lb (69 kg–cm).
