Adjust Alternator Belt
Check condition and tension of belt after every 100 op-
erating hours (Fig. 9).
1. Park machine on a level surface. Stop engine. Re-
move key from the ignition switch.
2. Proper belt tension will allow 3/8 inch (10 mm)
deflection when a force of 10 lbs (44.4 N) is applied on
the belt midway between both pulleys.
3. If deflection is not 3/8 inch (10 mm), loosen alterna-
tor mounting bolt. Increase or decrease alternator belt
tension and tighten bolt. Make sure tension is correct;
check deflection of belt again. Figure 9
