Checking belts' tension

Check the belts' tension periodically.
NOTE: Always keep a spare fan belt handy.
Changing the air conditioning compressor (extra equipment) and air pressure
compressor (extra equipment) belt requires special tools. Contact an authorized
Valtra workshop in case this belt needs to be changed.
1. Check the overall condition of the belts.
A slack, worn or oily belt can cause problems with battery charging and the
cooling system.
2. Check the belt tension.
Turn the belt from its longest free-running part with your fingers. The belt
should turn about 90 degrees but not more.
3. Adjust or change the belt if needed.
