MAINTENANCE

Clutch System

Drive Belt Installation

1. Drop the drive belt over the

drive clutch and pull back

the slack.

Tip: 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 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.
