2. Mark belt travel direction with a colored pen. Undo the three hexagon-head bolts on the pulley of the servo pump by approximately one half turn.





3. Relieve the belt tension. To do this, turn the tensioning roller (7) clockwise and simultaneously remove the belt from the drive pulleys. Remove pulley of the servo pump and take out drive belt.

4. Visually inspect the condition of the belt and replace it if necessary.

Installation





1. Fit the pulley of the servo pump with the drive belt and tighten the three hexagon-head bolts. Tighten the drive belt in the following order:

1. Crankshaft pulley (1)
2. Power steering pump drive pulley (2)
3. Deflection roller 1 (3)
4. Air-conditioning compressor drive pulley (4)
