Make sure that the engine is shut off and any starting mechanisms are isolated before any maintenance is performed.
CAUTION
The removal and replacement of any guards covering rotating components, drives and/or belts, must only be accomplished by a trained and certified technician. All fasteners removed must be replaced when installing the guards. If fastener replacement is required, verify the correct part number (or equivalent) is used. Do not substitute a fastener of lesser quality. Possible equipment damage or serious personal injury can occur.
NOTE: If difficulty is experienced installing the drive belt (i.e., the belt seems too short), position the belt over the grooved pulleys first and then, while holding the tensioner up, slide the belt over the water pump pulley.
Lift and hold the belt tensioner. Install the drive belt and release the tensioner.
