S.
Locate the supplied cog belt. Slip it over the
supercharger pulley and the drive pulley.
T.
Install the supplied 3/8-16 x 4.25" idler bolt
through the 10mm washer, the flanged alu-
minum idler, the idler spacer and into the slot
in the top of the supercharger mounting
bracket. (The bearing retainer snap ring on
the idler must be pointing toward the idler
spacer. Install the supplied nut and washer on
the bolt and tighten until the idler slides up
and down with no play.)
U.
Press down on the idler until the belt is snug
with minimal free play. It is not necessary to
have the belt tight. Once the vehicle has been
started, as long as the belt does not move
around excessively the belt is tight enough.
