and the crankshaft pulley as shown in the figure using a rag, 
and then degrease them.
NOTE: Degrease them to prevent drop in the friction coeffi-
cient of the pressed area, which is caused by oil adhesion.

3. Install the crankshaft pulley.
4. Wipe off the dirt on the crankshaft pulley washer and the 

crankshaft pulley center bolt as shown in the figure using a

WARNING

Always work from above when releasing the tension 
of the auto-tensioner. When you try to gain access 
from underneath the vehicle, you will experience diffi-
culty, thus causing the tool to be dropped off.

CAUTION

To work at the optimum angle, you must choose a most 
suitable box-type wrench is applied to the special tool.

WARNING

Be sure to set the box-type wrench and the special 
tool MB992278 to the hexagonal parts securely to pre-
vent the tool from falling off because the tension of 
the auto-tensioner is high.

2. Install special tool MB992278 and a box-type wrench at the 

optimum angle.

3. Rotate the auto-tensioner counterclockwise and remove the 

L-shaped hexagon wrench fixing the auto-tensioner.

4. Apply tension to the drive belt while slowly turning the 

auto-tensioner clockwise.
