Timing Belt: Service and Repair
Installation Procedure
Camshaft Drive, To Fit
1. Fit the camshaft belt as marked on the belt and in the correct direction of rotation. Use Adjustment tools, cam sprockets and timing belt
KM-800-30 to hold the belt in place. Fit the lower tensioning pulley loosely. Make sure the washer is in place.
Lightly adjust the tensioning pulley by hand so that the belt does not jump. Adjust anticlockwise. Make sure the markings on the camshaft belt and
the corresponding markings on the camshaft sprockets and crankshaft are aligned. Remove the tools, KM-800-30.
Fit locking tool KM-800-10, position a piece of camshaft belt and fit Belt tension meter part no. 83 93 985 to measure the belt tension.
Tighten the centre bolts of the adjuster rollers lightly. Adjust the lower adjuster roller anticlockwise until a tension of 275-300 Nm is obtained. Use
tool 83 94 983. Tighten the adjuster roller's bolt. Use tool 83 94 983 as a counterstay. Check the belt tension again and adjust as necessary.
Tightening torque: 40 Nm (30 ft. lbs.).
Remove the belt-tension meter and piece of the toothed belt.
Important: Adjustment of belt tension is only a preparatory measure and must not be used as a check when the belt is finally adjusted.
