Drive Belt Deflection

Measure belt deflection with both

clutches at rest and in their full

neutral position.
Place a straight edge on the belt (A)

and apply downward pressure while

measuring at point B. This

measurement should be 1 1/4”.

Drive Belt Adjustment

1. Loosen the 7/6” jam nut on the belt width adjuster.
2. Using a 1/8” Allen wrench, adjust the threaded set screw (C) as

needed.

NOTE: Turn the set screw in (clockwise) to increase the distance

between the sheaves and out (counterclockwise) to decrease

the distance.

3. Tighten the jam nut.

Clutch Center Distance

See your Owner’s Manual Supplement for recommended center

distance for your machine. If adjustment is necessary, see your dealer.

Due to tolerances in belt length, it may be necessary for your dealer to

make minor adjustments in the driven clutch to achieve correct belt

tension.
