Installation Guide

1. Disconnect the battery negative terminal to ensure electrical safety before beginning work.
2. Locate the alternator on your Yanmar engine and identify the existing belt routing path.
3. Loosen the alternator mounting bolts and adjustment bracket to create slack in the old belt.
4. Remove the old alternator belt from the pulleys, noting its routing configuration.
5. Inspect the alternator and crankshaft pulleys for wear, damage, or debris; clean if necessary.
6. Route the new belt around the crankshaft and alternator pulleys following the original path.
7. Adjust the alternator position to achieve proper belt tension—typically allowing about ½ inch of deflection under moderate thumb pressure at the belt's longest span.
8. Tighten the alternator mounting bolts and adjustment bracket securely once proper tension is achieved.
9. Rotate the crankshaft manually by hand two full revolutions to verify smooth belt operation and proper seating.
10. Reconnect the battery negative terminal.
11. Start the engine and observe belt operation; it should run smoothly without slipping, squealing, or excessive vibration.
12. Recheck belt tension after the first hour of operation and adjust if necessary.
