EVERY 10 HOURS OR DAILY

2360 and 2425 (N14) Engine

Loosen the compressor pivot bolt located behind the compressor next to the engine block. Loosen the adjuster clamp bolt, 1, and adjustment locknut, 2. Tighten the adjuster bolt, 3, to increase belt tension. Tighten the adjuster clamp bolt, 1, locknut, 2, and pivot bolt after the correct belt tension is obtained. Recheck the belt tension once all hardware is tightened. Torque the pivot bolt and adjuster clamp bolt to 79 N⋅m (58 ft. lbs.), and the locknut to 61 N⋅m (45 ft. lbs.).

IMPORTANT: Do not adjust belt tension to full value with the adjusting screw. Belt tension can increase when the locknut is tightened and, therefore, reduce belt and bearing life.

If the belt requires replacement, the adjustment should be backed off all the way, and the belt slipped up around the pulleys. Install the new belt by reversing the procedure and tension it as detailed above. Never pry a belt off or on a pulley as damage to the pulley and belt may result.

NOTE: The air-conditioning compressor drive belt is supplied by Buhler Versatile. Contact your Buhler Versatile dealer to obtain a new belt.
