2.11. Check, adjustment of a tension and replacement of a driving belt

Check

Examine driving belts on all length on both sides on existence of cracks or wear tracks.

Wear of a maple belt

1. Wear of a side surface

2. Strong attrition of a surface

3. Cracks

4. Stratification

5. The polished surface

6. Pollution by oil

7. Gap

Wear of a ridge belt

1. Admissible wear

2. Cross cracks on belt edges

3. Unacceptable wear

4. There are no adjacent sites of edges of a belt more than 1 cm long

5. Cracks parallel to belt edges

PERFORMANCE ORDER

Measure a tension of belts by means of special measuring tools and compare the obtained data with technical characteristics. If you have no special tool, check a tension, having pressed on a belt in the middle between two pulleys and having measured a belt deviation. The belt has to deviate on 6 mm if the distance between centers of pulleys makes 18–28 cm. The belt has to deviate on 12 mm if distance of pulleys of 30-40 cm between centers.

Measurement of a deviation of a belt by means of a ruler

1. Belt deviation

2. Check that the ruler was perpendicular to a lath

3. Lath

4. Ruler

Adjustment of a tension

PERFORMANCE ORDER

1. For adjustment of a tension of the driving generator and the compressor, weaken a hinged bolt (A) of the generator in the left forward corner of the block of cylinders. Weaken a lock bolt and turn an adjusting bolt (V) clockwise to pull a belt or counterclockwise to weaken. Measure a belt tension. If necessary carry out repeated adjustment.

2. For adjustment of a tension of a driving belt of the pump of system of hydrostrengthening of steering, weaken an adjusting bolt and turn the pump towards the engine or on the contrary to weaken or increase a belt tension respectively.

Replacement

PERFORMANCE ORDER

Weaken a tension of a driving belt and remove it from pulleys. If one belt demands replacement, it is recommended to replace other belts also.
