ALTERNATOR AND FAN BELT

Alternator / fan belt
The alternator charges the battery through
a completely closed circuit transistorized
voltage regulator which no maintenance is
required or possible.
As the alternator bearings are packed
permanently with grease during assembly,
future lubricating is not needed.
Warning
In order to be able to use more electric
equipments, we have installed 65A
alternator on your vehicle. Make sure
to replace it only with 65A type.
