When one belt of a multiple V-belt drive requires replacing, what will be required?
AI Explanation
The correct answer is B) replace the entire belt set.
When one belt in a multiple V-belt drive requires replacing, it is necessary to replace the entire belt set rather than just the individual belt. This is because the belts in a multiple V-belt drive are designed to work together as a matched set. Replacing just one belt would result in an unbalanced system, which could lead to premature wear and potential failure of the drive. The other belt options are incorrect because they do not address the need to replace the entire belt set as a unit.
