These universal tools are designed for installing flexible ribbed belts and stretch-fit auxiliary drive belts without damaging the new belt or pulley.
Stretch-fit belt systems do not use a conventional tensioner pulley. A suitable installation tool is therefore required to guide the elastic belt onto the crankshaft pulley without excessive stretching.
The two included sizes cover a wide range of pulley and vehicle applications.
Instructions for Use
- If the old ribbed belt is still installed, cut it using a suitable tool.
- Position the installation tool against the pulley. Adjust the spacer bolt until the tool sits flat and securely against the pulley.
- Route the new ribbed belt over all pulleys according to the vehicle manufacturer’s service instructions. Place the belt over the installation tool last.
- With the engine switched off, rotate the crankshaft clockwise by hand using a suitable tool. The installation tool will guide the ribbed belt onto the crankshaft pulley.
- Check that the belt is correctly seated in all pulley grooves before starting the engine.
