Drive Belt Installation

1. Drop the drive belt over the

drive clutch and pull back the

slack (A).

NOTE: To ensure satisfactory belt

life, install belts so they

operate in the same

direction of rotation by

positioning the identification

numbers so that you can

read them. If required,

separate 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 bottom

portion over the outer clutch sheave (B). 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.
