Abstract
Two guiding marks constituted by two parallel transversal marks are borne on the back of the belt, a number between said marks being indicated giving the length of the spacing required by the two markers when the belt is installed so that this belt is subjected to a suitable mounting tension. When the belt is installed, the latter is thus tensioned until the spacing of the marks reaches the given value which is simply checked by a meter rule. The invention concerns the mounting of transmission belts.
