Maintenance and Adjustment
Remove the tool, taking care not to
move the O-ring or deflection slider, and
read the belt deflection on the scale on
the tool. The belt deflection is the gap
between the top of deflection slider and
the lower edge of the O-ring. The
increments on the scale are 0.5 mm
(0.020 in) apart.

Repeat the measurement at several
points around the drive belt to locate its
