   NOTICE:

   1. There are 2 types of V-ribbed belt. The type to use depends on the type of generator, so be sure to confirm the belt type before installing.
      

      Generator	Paint Mark
      80 A	Blue
      100 A	Red

   2. Before installing the V-ribbed belt, check each pulley for any liquid or chips.
      
   1. Check that the ribs of the V-ribbed belt are correctly fitted into the grooves of the pulleys.
      

2. Turn the V-ribbed belt tensioner clockwise and remove the 4 mm bi-hexagon wrench.
   

1. Temporarily install the No. 1 V-ribbed belt onto each pulley.
   

   NOTICE:

   1. Before installing the No. 1 V-ribbed belt, check each pulley for any liquid or chips.
      
   1. Check that the ribs of the No. 1 V-ribbed belt are correctly fitted into the grooves of the pulleys.
      

1. Turn the adjust bolt B to adjust the tension of No. 1 V-ribbed belt.
   

   Deflection:

   Pressing Force N ( kg, lb)	New Belt mm (in.)	Used Belt mm (in.)
   10 (10, 22)	8.0 to 10.0 (0.315 to 0.394)	10.0 to 12.0 (0.394 to 0.472)

2. Tighten bolt A.
   

   Torque:

   44 N*m{ 449 kgf*cm , 32 ft.*lbf }

1. Check the belt for wear, cracks or other signs of damage.
   If any of the following defects is found, replace the V-ribbed belt.
   

   HINT:

   1. The belt is cracked.
      
   2. The belt is worn out to the extent that the cords are exposed.
      
   3. The belt has chunks missing from the ribs.
      

2. Check that the belt fits properly in the ribbed grooves.
   

   HINT:

   Check with your hand to confirm that the belt has not slipped out of the grooves on the bottom of the pulley. If it has slipped out, replace the V-ribbed belt. Install a new V-ribbed belt correctly.

   Deflection:

   Pressing Force N ( kg, lb)	New Belt mm (in.)	Used Belt mm (in.)
   10 (10, 22)	8.0 to 10.0 (0.315 to 0.394)	10.0 to 12.0 (0.394 to 0.472)

   HINT:

   No. 1 V-ribbed belt tension

   New Belt N (kg, lb)	Used Belt N (kg, lb)
   397 to 593 (40 to 60, 89 to 133)	300 to 398 (31 to 41, 67 to 89)

   NOTICE:

   1. Check the No. 1 V-ribbed belt deflection at the specified point.
      
   2. When installing a new belt, set its deflection value as specified.
      
   3. When checking a belt used for over 5 minutes, confirm that the deflection value is within the specified range for a used belt.
      
   4. When reinstalling a belt used for over 5 minutes, check whether its deflection value is within the specified range for a used belt.
      

1. Install the No. 3 engine under cover with the 3 clips.
