## ⚙️ Key Features

-   Later-production pulley for the high-mounted 28 V / 35 A alternator drive
-   0.197 kg
-   19 applications across TD and TAD-series engines
-   Consolidates 20798204 and 20798216, both catalogued earlier as rings

## 🔌 Function

Takes the belt drive from the engine and turns the alternator rotor at the ratio set by its groove diameter.

## ⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

-   Belt squeal or a chirp that follows engine speed
-   Black belt dust collecting around the drive
-   Low or intermittent charging
-   Groove found polished, worn or with the ribs rounded off
-   A visible wobble or run-out as the alternator shaft is turned, or bearing noise from the alternator behind it

## 🛠️ Service Notes

-   This is the later-production version and replaces both 20798204 and 20798216, so order against the current number
-   Renew the belt at the same time - a worn pulley groove chews a new belt quickly
-   Check the alternator shaft and its nut for run-out before condemning the pulley
