WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2014 Mitsubishi Outlander. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Attach the chain tensioner to the ladder frame.
    CAUTION: Install the chain tensioner precisely in place after installing the tensioner lever and chain guide to prevent the plunger of the chain tensioner from jumping out.
  2. Remove the hard wire (piano wire, etc.) of ø1.5 or hexagonal bar wrench (1.5 mm [0.06 inch]) from the tensioner. This enables the plunger of the chain tensioner to push the balancer shaft tensioner lever to keep the balancer shaft chain tight.
