  1. Prepare for installation of the automatic belt tension adjuster assembly. CAUTION: Always use a vertical type pressing tool to move the adjuster rod down. Do not use a lateral type vise. Push the adjuster rod vertically. Press-in the push adjuster rod gradually taking three minutes or more. Do not allow press pressure to exceed 9,807 N (1,000 kgf, 2,205 lb). Push in the adjuster rod to the end face of the cylinder. However, do not push in the adjuster rod below the end face of the cylinder. Doing so may damage the cylinder. Do not release the press pressure until stopper pin is completely inserted. Attach the automatic belt tension adjuster assembly to vertical pressing tool. Slowly push in the adjuster rod with a pressure of 165 N (16.8 kgf, 37.1 lb) or more until the adjuster rod is aligned with the stopper pin hole in the cylinder. With a 2 mm (0.08 in) dia. stopper pin or a 2 mm (0.08 in) (nominal) dia. hex wrench inserted into the stopper pin hole in cylinder, secure the adjuster rod.
