(1) Ensure that crankshaft sprocket "B" timing mark and the silent shaft sprocket timing mark are aligned.
(2) Fit timing belt "B" over crankshaft sprocket "B" and the silent shaft sprocket. Ensure that there is no slack in the belt.
ADJUSTMENT OF TIMING BELT "B" TENSION
(1) Temporarily fix the timing belt "B" tensioner such that the center of the tensioner pulley is to the left and above the center of the installation
bolt, and temporarily attach the tensioner pulley so that the flange is toward the front of the engine.
(2) Holding the timing belt "B" tensioner up with your finger in the direction of the arrow, as shown in image, place pressure on the timing belt so
that the tension side of the belt is taut. Now tighten the bolt to fix the tensioner.
CAUTION:When tightening the bolt, ensure that the tensioner pulley shaft does not rotate with the bolt. Allowing it to rotate with the bolt can
cause excessive tension on the belt.
(3) To ensure that the tension is correct, depress the belt (point "A," as shown in image) with a finger. If not, adjust.
