6.2.4 Checking the Belt Tension for the Vertical Axis
Using a push-pull gauge, push the timing belt for vertical axis with a force of A (gf) and measure the
amount of deflection.
If the deflection is B (mm), the belt tension is normal.
If not, adjust the belt tension by referring to 6.2.6, “Adjusting the Belt Tension for the Vertical Axis.”
