   NOTE: Ensure belt is taut between sprockets on non-tensioned side.

3. Attach tension gauge to belt at . Tool No.SEEM C.Tronic 105.5 [8] .
4. Slacken tensioner nut [7] .
5. Turn tensioner anti-clockwise until tension gauge indicates 44 SEEM units.
6. Tighten tensioner nut to 22 Nm [7] .
7. Remove:
   • Timing pins [5] & [6] .
   • Tension gauge [8] .
8. Turn crankshaft four turns clockwise to setting position.
