3.10. Mechanism of a tension of a driving chain, asterisk and uspokoitel of a chain

3.10.1. Mechanism of a tension of a driving chain

Removal

At installation of a new chain constantly support both branches of a chain in the tense situation.

Unscrewing of a kolpachkovy nut from the case of the mechanism of a tension of a driving chain

Extraction of a spring and sealing ring from the mechanism of a tension of a driving chain

Mechanism of a tension of a driving chain

1–kolpachkovy nut;
2–sealing ring;
3–spring;
4–bracket;
5–plunzher;
6–case

The direction of extraction of a plunzher with a bracket from the case of the mechanism of a tension of a driving chain

1–case;
2–plunzher;
3–bracket

PERFORMANCE ORDER

1. Remove a weight wire from the accumulator.

2. Remove an auxiliary driving belt.

3. For improvement of access to the mechanism of a tension of a driving chain remove the generator.

4. From the right forward party of the engine unscrew a kolpachkovy nut from the case of the mechanism of a tension of a driving chain and take a spring and a sealing ring (see fig. Unscrewing of a kolpachkovy nut from the case of the mechanism of a tension of a driving chain, Extraction of a spring and a sealing ring from the mechanism of a tension of a driving chain).

Prevention

When unscrewing a kolpachkovy nut be careful, as the nut is influenced by strongly compressed spring.

5. Unscrew the case of the mechanism of a tension of a driving chain from the block of cylinders of the engine (see fig. Mechanism of a tension of a driving chain).

6. Take a plunzher with a bracket from the case of the mechanism of a tension of a driving chain (see fig. The direction of extraction of a plunzher with a bracket from the case of the mechanism of a tension of a driving chain).

Replacement

PERFORMANCE ORDER

1. Clear details of the mechanism of a tension of a driving chain and check lack of wear on a plunzher and the case.

2. Check a condition of a bracket and a spring of the mechanism of a tension and, if necessary, replace them.

Installation

Arrangement of a plunzher in the case of the mechanism of a tension of a driving chain

1–the provision of a plunzher at installation;
2–the direction of extraction of a plunzher from the case

PERFORMANCE ORDER

1. Screw in the case of the mechanism of a tension of a driving chain in the block of cylinders and tighten it the demanded moment.

2. Insert a plunzher with a bracket into the case of the mechanism of a tension of a driving belt against the stop brackets in a fillet of an internal cavity of the case (see fig. An arrangement of a plunzher in the case of the mechanism of a tension of a driving chain).

3. Insert a spring into the case, establish on a kolpachkovy nut a new sealing ring and, overcoming resistance of a spring, screw a kolpachkovy nut and tighten it the demanded moment.

4. Establish the generator.

5. Establish an auxiliary driving belt.

6. Connect a weight wire to the accumulator.
