I have 103 hours on my CT 335. Yesterday, upon starting up, there was a squealing noise coming from under the hood. It stopped after running a couple of minutes. I was in a hurry and wasn't able to check the belt, which is what it sounds like. Anyone else had this trouble? How hard is the belt to tighten? Any insight is appreciated.

Tighten your alternator belt. I can't believe it will be hard to do. CJ

I have tightened the belt on my DK35se.. it was easy.. you need two different sized metric wrenches but I don't remember the sizes. It was about a 2 minute job. I checked it at 100 hours and it was pretty loose.
