More Information
Summary:The invention comprises a belt installation tool comprising a substantially planar body. A belt engaging surface extends substantially normally from a portion of the planar body. A pulley engaging portion extends from the planar body approximately opposite the belt engaging surface. A central bore allows a tool to engage a pulley shaft. In use, the pulley engaging surface engages a pulley whereby the tool is rotated by a pulley rotation about a pulley axis, thereby causing the belt engaging surface to automatically urge a belt onto a pulley. The planar body stabilizes the tool against the pulley as a belt is installed. The molded body may be fabricated by injection molding.
