What should I know about installation and maintenance?

Installation is straightforward for a qualified technician or a competent DIYer with the right tools. Always inspect and, if needed, replace the tensioner, idlers and pulleys to avoid premature wear and to ensure correct belt tracking and life expectancy.

• Pre-install check: Examine tensioner, idler bearings and pulley grooves
