TM  9-2320-356-BD Section   III.   BELTS 3-8.  GENERAL V-Belts   provide   direct   drive   and   can   be   substituted   or   replaced   if   the   basic factors   about   each   belt   are   considered. Substitute   belts   must   be   the   correct length   to   maintain   tension   and   wide   enough   to   prevent   bottoming   in   the   pulley   V. Inspect   width   and   length   of   the   belt. Smaller,   narrower   belts   may   be   substituted or   V-belts   may   be   taken   from   another   vehicle   if   there   are   twin   belt   drives. Direct vehicle-to-vehicle   removal   and   installation   is   a   simple   method   of   replacing   missing belts. 3-9. V-BELT MISSING OR BROKEN General   Information: Some   vehicle   subsystems   such   as   water   pumps   and   radiator   fans   are   driven   by V-belts. Power   generation   is   also   belt   driven. Worn   or   frayed   V-belts   can   slip   or break   causing   the   system   to   fail. V-belts   should   be   replaced   or   substituted   to restore   system   functions. Frequent   adjustment   may   be   required   for   substitute V-belts. Limitations: o   Frequent   stops   for   belt   adjustment o   Possible   engine   overheating Personnel/Time   Required: o   1   soldier o   15-60   minutes Materials/Tools: o   Adustable   link   V-belts o   Rope o   Wire Procedural    Steps: Option   1: Rope   or   Wire. 1. Rope   or   wire   can   also   be   used,    but   thin   wire   must   be   braided   to   ensure   the needed    friction    is    provided. 2. Adjust   the   tensioner   assembly   for   minimum   belt   length. 3. Assemble   the   rope   or   wire   as   close   as   possible   to   the   minimum   belt   length. 4. Tighten   with   the   tensioner   assembly. 5. Record   the   BDAR   action   taken. When   the   mission   is   completed,   as   soon   as practicable,   repair   using   standard   maintenance   procedures. 3-6
