(4) Hold the special tool (MB991668) to the middle of
the belt between the pulleys (at the place indicated
by the arrow) about 10 - 20 mm away from the rear
surface and so that it is perpendicular to the belt
(within an angle of±15°).
(5) Gently tap the middle of the belt between the pulleys
(at the place indicated by the arrow) with your finger
as shown in the illustration, and check that the
vibration frequency of the belt is within the standard
value.
Standard value: 110 - 144 Hz
Caution
1) Check the vibration frequency of the belt when
the temperature of the surface of the belt is
as close as possible to normal temperature.
2) Do not let any contaminants such as water
or oil get onto the microphone.
3) If strong gusts of wind blow against the
microphone or if there are any loud sources
of noise nearby, the values measured by the
microphone may not correspond to actual
values.
4) If the microphone is touching the belt while
the measurement is being made, the values
measured by the microphone may not
correspond to actual values.
5) Do not take the measurement while the
vehicle's engine is running.
<When using belt tension gauge>
Use the belt tension gauge and check that the belt tension
of the middle of the belt between pulleys
(at the place indicated by arrow) is within the standard
value.
Standard value: 245 - 412 N
