Install Belt on Jinma Tractor

[jb7919]

I am trying to install a fan belt on my 2002 Jinma 284 tractor. We were able to get the belt over the fan without pulling the radiator. It is very tight working in the area of the 3 pulleys. Tried removing the front part of the alternator where the pulley is, but could not do so without risking the bending of the blades that cool the alternator. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

A quick search on the subject finds several owners complaining about this issue and using the link style belts.

Thanks for the information, much appreciated. I never heard of the link style belt before. Any idea where to get one?

Just Google " link style V belt", you will find many options.
