V-Belts - Inspect/Adjust/Replace<br />

For options regarding the removal, installation, <strong>and</strong><br />

replacement, consult your <strong>Perkins</strong> dealer or your<br />

<strong>Perkins</strong> distributor. Refer to the Disassembly <strong>and</strong><br />

Assembly <strong>Manual</strong>, “Turbocharger - Remove <strong>and</strong><br />

Turbocharger - Install” for further information.<br />

Inspecting<br />

NOTICE<br />

The compressor housing for the turbocharger must<br />

not be removed from the turbocharger for cleaning.<br />

The actuator linkage is connected to the compressor<br />

housing. If the actuator linkage is moved or disturbed<br />

the engine may not comply with emmissions legislation.<br />

Inspection<br />

1. Remove the pipe from the turbocharger exhaust<br />

outlet <strong>and</strong> remove the air intake pipe to the<br />

turbocharger. Visually inspect the piping for the<br />

presence of oil. Clean the interior of the pipes<br />

in order to prevent dirt from entering during<br />

reassembly.<br />

2. Check for the presence of oil. If oil is leaking from<br />

the back side of the compressor wheel, there is a<br />

possibility of a failed turbocharger oil seal.<br />

The presence of oil may be the result of extended<br />

engine operation at low idle. The presence of oil<br />

mayalsobetheresultofarestrictionoftheline<br />

for the intake air (clogged air filters), which causes<br />

the turbocharger to slobber.<br />

3. Inspect the bore of the housing of the turbine<br />

outlet for corrosion.<br />

4. Fasten the air intake pipe <strong>and</strong> the exhaust outlet<br />

pipe to the turbocharger housing.<br />

Arrangement for the V-belts<br />

g01249073<br />

To maximize the engine performance, inspect the<br />

belts for wear <strong>and</strong> for cracking. Replace belts that are<br />

worn or damaged.<br />

For applications that require multiple drive belts,<br />

replace the belts in matched sets. Replacing only<br />

one belt of a matched set will cause the new belt to<br />

carry more load because the older belt is stretched.<br />

The additional load on the new belt could cause the<br />

new belt to break.<br />

If the belts are too loose, vibration causes<br />

unnecessary wear on the belts <strong>and</strong> pulleys. Loose<br />

belts may slip enough to cause overheating.<br />

To accurately check the belt tension, a suitable gauge<br />

should be used.
