Line the dial part or handle to the grove on the body of the wrench where it says 15 plus add the dashes to make 18 which is the 3 dash from 0 turning it to the right. It will be 18 in FT lbs. remember to twist the lock nut on the end so the dial does not turn when torquing on the wrench.
When you tighten the bolt and it reaches the ft lbs you set the wrench at it will make a CLICK sound and you can feel it click too.
practice on a wheel lug nut or some other nut to get a feel for it.
You don't want that tension pulley bolt coming loose. I could not find the specs for the torque but I never used a torque wrench when doing a timing belt.
But your Cog type belts do not require much tension for the belt to stay in place.TIMING BELT Im going to change my timing belt in a few days and was wondering if any1 could tell me how to set?are you sure you are up to this ? very expensive mistakes can be made - you should really have a workshop manual .TIMING BELT Im going to change my timing belt in a few days and was wondering if any1 could tell me how to set?Get a Haynes manual: You'll need several different torque settings for various nuts %26amp; bolts, as well as a specific procedures for replacing the belt itself.
Your torque wrench should have instructions with it, but usually they're adjusted with a knurled wheel at the end of the handle - the torque setting appears against a mark in a clear 'window' on the handle, or against a mark on a scale at the adjuster.
