REMOVING-REFITTING
SHAFT DRIVE BELTS
Position the vehicle on a lift, disconnect the
negative battery terminal, remove the right
front wheel, then proceed as described below:
1. Remove the auxiliary shaft drive belt shield.
Check the condition and the tension
of the auxiliary shaft drive belts and,
in particular, make sure that there are
no cracks, cuts, surface wear of the
material (which would look smooth
and shiny), dry or hardened sections
with a consequent loss of grip. If one
of the above mentioned faults is pre-
sent, the belt involved must be re-
placed.
2. View of auxiliary shaft drive belts fitted on
vehicle:
1. Power assisted steering pump drive belt.
2. Air conditioning compressor drive belt.
3. Alternator drive belt.
Avoid the belts coming into contact
with oil or solvents which could ad-
versely affect the elasticity of the
rubber with a consequent reduction
in grip.
