Loosen pivot bolt, lock nut and bracket nut. Turn adjusting bolt to set specified deflection. See BELT ADJUSTMENT SPECIFICATIONS . Tighten pivot bolt, lock nut and bracket nut to specifications. See TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS .
Ensure drive belt tension is 110-132 lbs. (50-60 kg) for new belts and 95-110 ft. lbs. (43-50 kg) for used belts. Measure deflection midway between pulleys. See BELT ADJUSTMENT SPECIFICATIONS table. Adjust if necessary.
