2 Description and Operation of the Poly-V Belts 2 Description and Operation of the Poly-V Belts The Poly-V belts are used to transmit power or torque from the crankshaft to each of the belt-driven accessory components. The DD Heavy Duty engine belts are currently constructed of a compound known as Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer (EPDM). EPDM compound is elastic by design, making it more resistant to cracking than conventional neoprene. For maintenance intervals, Refer to section "EPA07/EPA10/GHG14/GHG17 Preventive Maintenance Tables - 93K222(CK-4) and 93K223(FA-4)". The belt tensioner provides the belt with constant, adequate tension. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5.

3 Removal of the Poly-V-Belts Remove as follows: NOTICE: Do not use more than a six-inch extension when applying pressure to the belt tensioner to reduce the danger of cracking the tensioner. Apply smooth pressure to the tensioner. Jerking or sudden pressure could cause damage to tensioner. NOTICE: Never turn the belt tensioner arms clockwise. NOTICE: Do not use any type of cleaning solvent on the rubber parts of the tensioner or on the belt. Detroit does not approve the use of belt dressing or other like products, as this may result in premature belt wear. WARNING: PERSONAL INJURY To avoid injury to hands and fingers from the spring-loaded auto belt tensioner violently snapping back, do not cut the belt to remove it. 1. Shut off the engine, apply the parking brake, chock the wheels, and perform any other applicable safety steps. 2. Open the hood. CAUTION: ELECTRICAL SHOCK To avoid injury from electrical shock, use care when connecting battery cables. The magnetic switch studs are at battery voltage. 3. Disconnect the batteries. 4. If necessary, remove the bumper. Refer to the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) procedures. 5. Install a half-inch drive socket wrench into the square hole (1) on the tensioner grooved pulley idler arm. All information subject to change without notice. 5

4 Inspection of the Poly-V-Belts 4 Inspection of the Poly-V-Belts Inspect as follows: NOTE: Belts will track slightly forward on the non-grooved pulleys when the engine is running. Once the engine is turned off, the belt will re-center itself. NOTICE: Do not use any type of cleaning solvent on the rubber parts of the tensioner or on the belt. Detroit does not approve the use of belt dressing or other like products as this may result in premature belt wear. 1. Check the maintenance records to be sure the belts are not overdue for a maintenance interval. Refer to section "EPA07/EPA10/GHG14/GHG17 Preventive Maintenance Tables - 93K222(CK-4) and 93K223(FA-4)". Replace if needed. NOTE: Where the belt contacts the pulleys there will be a polished shine to the pulley created by the belt contact. If misalignment is occurring, the belt may be riding off-centered on the pulley. 2. Inspect the belt contact surfaces for chips, flaking, cracks, and discoloration using the guidelines listed below. Table 1.

Table 2. PILLING Poly-V-Belt Inspection Concerns UNEVEN RIB WEAR MISALIGNMENT GRAVEL PENETRATION a. If any of the above conditions are present, Refer to section "Belt Drive Noise". b. If the belt shows no abnormal wear, Go to step 5. 3. Using the appropriate belt wear gauge, measure the amount of wear on the belt. 4. Inspect the belt (2) for wear using the gauge (1). Place the long end of the tool between the ribs of the belt. All information subject to change without notice. 9
4 Inspection of the Poly-V-Belts a. If the wear gauge (2) is visible above the ribs (1) of the belt, the belt may be reused. See figure below. b. If the wear gauge (2) does not protrude above the ribs (4) of the belt, replace the belt. 5. Inspect the belt drive pulleys for abnormal wear or damage; rotate the belt drive pulleys by hand while checking for grinding, sticking, and excessive lateral or radial play. 10 All information subject to change without notice.
