OTC 4748 Belt Tension Gauge
This easy to use and read tool allows for accurate belt tension to be set after belt replacement, adjustment, or wheel service. Use on secondary drive belts with a 10 pounds specification. Instructions: 1. Position the small O-ring over the 10 pounds mark. 2. Position the U-shaped belt cradle against the bottom of the belt at a 90 degree angle and locate the large O-ring to a reference point, record reading. 3. Push upward on the rubber bumper until the small O-ring touches the bottom of the tool body. Re-align the large O-ring to the reference point; difference in the reading is the belt deflection. Refer to service manual for specifications.
