The workshop manual recommends special fitting hardware be used to
install a new A/C belt and to cut the existing belt in order to remove
it. (Reference pages 01-10-3 and 01-10-4.) The fitting hardware
assists in A/C belt installation due to the absence of an
idler/adjustment pulley.

Please order A/C belt kit p/# LFY1-15-SAX which includes a belt,
fitting hardware, and instructions. Because the fitting hardware
is designed for a one time use only, the kit must be ordered each
time the A/C belt is serviced.
