Drive Belt Removal

NOTICE: Do not attempt to remove the drive belt after operating in reverse. The

snowmobile must be stopped after forward motion to prevent damage

to components during belt removal.

1. Stop the engine after operating in a forward motion.

Tip: For easier accessibility, make sure the clutch tool access hole is visible

between the 11:00 and 2:00 positions of the clutch sheave.

2. Turn the ignition key off.

Wait for the engine to come

to a complete stop.

3. Lock the parking brake.
4. Open the hood.
5. Remove the left side panel.
6. Install an L-wrench into the

open threaded access hole in

the outer sheave of the

clutch.

7. Turn the wrench clockwise

until the sheaves open far

enough to remove the belt.
