DAYCO 259 Instrucciones Para La Instalación

TENSIONER PART NUMBER: 259
Installation Instructions:
Remove the coolant overflow bottle for easier access to tensioner. Remove the serpentine belt
by using a 1/2" breakover bar, ratchet, or serpentine belt installation tool. Insert the drive lug
into the square hole in the tensioner arm and rotate the tensioner arm to release tension.
Remove the belt. Using the proper size socket, remove the tensioner mounting bolt, and
remove the tensioner.
Before installing the new tensioner, make sure the mounting surface for the tensioner is clean
and free from rust or other obstructions. Find the locator pin holes, and rotate the replacement
tensioner until the locator pins and the holes line up, and insert the pins into the holes. Reinstal
the mounting bolt, and torque down to a tight fit.
Using the breakover bar, ratchet, or serpentine belt installation tool, rotate the tensioner arm to
install the serpentine belt. Making sure the belt is correctly fitted to all the pulleys in the drive
system. Start the engine to check for any problems. Extreme care should be taken when
reinstalling the serpentine belt because some of the pulleys are located in remote positions and
it is very hard to see that the belt is seated properly in all of the grooves. If the belt isn't seated
properly, the belt can "ride out" of the grooves and the belt can be damaged.
