Idler Arm Assembly Installation

1. Position the idler arm assembly in the unit so the
drive belt is routed between the pulley and the idler

tower, inserting the idler mounting bolt through the
mounting hole in the tower. Using a 1/2" socket and
wrench, install a nut onto the idler assembly bolt
securing it to the tower. Ensure the idler arm rotates
freely (Fig. 1314).
