Drive Belt Deflection
Measure belt deflection with
both clutches at rest and in their
full neutral position.
Place a straight edge on the belt
(1) and apply downward pres-
sure while measuring at point 2.
This measurement should be 1
1/4 inches (32 mm).
Drive Belt Adjustment
Belt deflection should be adjusted without removing the clutch from the
jackshaft.
1. Loosen the 7/16-inch jam nut on the belt width adjuster.
2. Using a 1/8-inch Allen wrench, adjust the threaded set screw as
needed.
Tip: 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.
Torque Stop
Periodically check torque stop
clearance. With clutches in
proper alignment, the torque stop
clearance should be .010-.030
inch (.25-.75 mm) from the
engine case.
Adjust if necessary, and lock the
jam nut.
