A process for assembling a belt (15) for a continuously variable transmission, comprising the following steps: preparing standard elements (32), first adjusting elements (32A) and second adjusting elements respectively having a thickness of 1.5 mm, 1.6 mm and 1.4 mm; measuring an initial clearance alpha i generated upon closely assembling only the standard elements (32) to a metal ring assembly; if the initial clearance alpha i < 0.8 mm, using a predetermined number of the first adjusting elements, thereby making a clearance between the elements smaller than 0.1 mm; if the initial clearance alpha i≥0.8 mm, using a predetermined number of the second adjusting elements, thereby making the clearance between the elements smaller than 0.1 mm. Thus, the number of the adjusting elements required for adjusting the clearance between the elements can be suppressed to seven or less. <IMAGE> |
