Drive Belt Tension Inspection
On new drive systems or belt, adjust belt tension after the
first 500 miles (800 km). Adjust tension at each tire
change thereafter.
Tip: Do not inspect or adjust drive belt tension when the belt is
wet. Improper adjustment will result.
Checking drive belt tension involves using the belt tension
gauge (P/N PV-43532). You can also use a Sonic Tension
Meter if available. Before beginning this procedure:
• Make sure the drive system is clean, dry, and at room
temperature (belt and sprockets).
• Be sure suspension is properly adjusted.
• Belt tension must be adjusted at the tightest spot.
