When making repairs or adjustments to the camshaft drive belt, be certain to torque the retaining nut of the tensioning roller and the shouldered nut behind the tensioning roller (arrows) to 45 N-m (32.4 ft. lbs.)

Failure to ensure proper torque of these nuts may cause breakage of the tensioning roller stud and result in severe engine damage.
