maintenance interval, the engine fan belt should be
replaced if it appears frayed or cracked. (Figure 5-19)
NOTE: If the fan belt is loose or damaged, and/or
the fan is damaged, it can result in overheating or
insufcient charging. Replace the fan belt and any
other damaged components immediately.
Engine must be turned off and the key

1. Turn off engine and remove the key. Block the
wheels to prevent movement while working on the
machine.

mounting bolts and place a lever between the
alternator and the engine block.

the deection of the belt (when pressed in
the middle of the span) falls within .39 to .47
inches.
