MAINTENANCE 24.6.3 CLEAN ELEMENT IN AIR CONDITIONER RECIRCULATION FILTER 1. Open the filter inspection cover, remove the filter cover, then remove the filter in the direction of the arrow. When removing the filter to the side, put your weight on the seat, and push down. 2. Direct compressed air, less than 7 kg/cm (100 psi), to the 2 filter from the inside along its folds, then direct it from the outside along its folds and again from the inside. Check the filter for damage and/or deterioration. If the filter is extremely dirty, rinse it in water. After rinsing filter, dry it completely before installing it again.
24.6.4 CHECK AIR CONDITIONER COMPRESSOR BELT TENSION, ADJUST Checking The deflection of the belt should be when pressed with the thumb force of midway between the air conditioner compressor pulley and fan pulley. When belt tension gauge is used, it is considered normal for tension to remain in the range of 353 to 530 N (79 to 119 lbf). Check When Installing a new V-Belt The deflection of the belt should be approximately 8 to 11.5 mm (0.315 to 0.5 in) when pressed with the thumb force of approximately 98 N (22 lbf) at a point midway between the air conditioner compressor pulley and fan pulley.
Tension for a new, unstretched belt, measured with a belt tension gauge, may be higher in the range of 530 to 745 N (119 to 167 lbf). Adjusting Loosen bolt (1) and move compressor (2) to adjust the belt tension. Check each pulley for damage, wear of the v-groove, and wear of the v-belt. In particular, be sure to check that the v-belt is not touching the bottom of the v-groove. Replace the v-belt if cut or cracked or if it has stretched leaving no allowance for adjustment. When adjusting the v-belt, do not push the compressor directly with a bar. Use a wrench. 3-50 WA320-3MC
