Adjust Alternator Belt
Make sure belt is properly tensioned to assure the prop-
er operation of the machine and prevent unnecessary
wear. On new belts, check tension after 8 hours of op-
eration.
The engine belt should be tensioned so it deflects 0.20
inch (5 mm) with a 2 to 3 lbf (9 to 13 N) load applied mid-
way between the crankshaft and alternator pulley.
1. Loosen bolts securing the alternator to the engine
and adjusting bracket.
2. Adjust belt to proper tension and tighten bolts.

justment of throttle control. Make sure throttle control is
operating properly.

tion.

gine.
3. Move cable until speed control lever contacts idle
speed screw
