6.7.6 V-belt
Checking the V-belt
Check the entire circumference of the V-belt for damage (visual inspection).
Replace worn or damage V-belts immediately.
Checking V-belt tension
We recommend the use of a belt tensioner gauge in order to check the V-belt
tension.
The tension check must be carried out according to the manufacturer’s manual.
Checking the V-belt tension without belt tensioner gauge
Press the V-belt with your thumb in the middle of the longest free length, and
measure the sagging. Using medium thumb pressure of approx. 45 N
(approx. 4.5 kg), the V-belt sag should equal 10 mm.
Danger of crushing
Body parts may be crushed by
moving parts.
Z Check or replace V-belts only
when the engine is turned off.
Z Secure the engine against
unauthorized starting.
