This tension gauge can use to adjust tension on the cam belt that movement of the timing belt is measured by load(Nm).
Suitable for using on the cam belt with the various belt width.Easy yp use with clear incremental marking and knurled knob
for the precise measurement.Dual scale allows reading from the top or the bottom of tool.

This sample factory belt specification calls for 3.5mm of belt deflection with 4.5daN
of force applied to the belt by the tension gauge. The intersection of these values on
the chart indicates a tension gauge setting of 16 and an optimum tension value of 13.
