How do you replace the timing belt of the Ford Focus?

Model: Ford Focus MK 3 - Years 2011-2018
Part: Timing belt

In order to replace the timing belt of the Ford Focus, it is necessary to lift the car using a jack or a lift, so that the right front wheel is not in contact with the ground: at this point it will be possible to proceed by completely removing the wheel from the hub and also removing the corresponding fender. This will give access to the side of the engine block where the timing belt is located: by loosening the central nut of the tensioner pulley and removing it from its seat, it will be possible to reduce the tension of the belt, removing it and replacing it with a new one.
