MAINTENANCE

Clutch System

Drive Belt Installation

1. Drop the drive belt over the

drive clutch and pull back

the slack.

NOTE: To ensure satisfactory

belt life, install belts so

they operate in the

same direction of rota-

tion by positioning the

identification numbers

so that you can read

them. If required, sepa-

rate the sheaves as

outlined in the belt removal procedures.

2. Turn the driven clutch moveable sheave clockwise while pushing

inward and forcing the belt down between the sheaves.

3. Hold the belt down between

the sheaves and roll the bot-

tom portion over the outer

clutch sheave. Work the belt

to the outer edge of the

sheave.

4. Rotate the L-wrench to

tighten the sheaves. Remove

the wrench and store in the

tool kit.

5. Close the clutch guard and

reinstall the retaining pin.

6. Close and secure the hood and release the parking brake.
