10.1.5 Inspection
(1) V belt inspection
1)Inspect the matter whether there are not crack, stickiness
and wear on the belt visually.
Check that a belt doesn't touch the bottom part of the pul-

2)V belt tension:
Push the center of the V belt and check the belt deflec-
tion. The V belt tension is normal if the deflection is within
the standard. If not, adjust the V belt tension by the alter-
nator adjuster.
