Checking the belt tension

The belt tension can be checked by depressing the fan belt (engine not running!) at a point midway between
the generator and fan. It should be possible to press down the belt about 1/4" - 3/8" (5-10 mm). This also
applies to other drive belts on the engine.
WARNING! The engine must not be running when this check is
performed.
