Drive Belt Installation

NOTICE

Do not attempt to install drive belt with drive clutch stationary sheave installed.

  1. Push moveable sheave and spacer sleeve of drive clutch fully inward and measure the amount of exposed splines on the shaft. Be sure at least 5/16 (mm) of spline is exposed. If less than 5/16 is exposed, remove clutch and sleeve and check assembly of components.

  2. Loop belt around driven clutch. Install belt so numbers can be read from front of vehicle looking rearward.

  3. Install and compress moveable sheave of driven clutch and force belt as far down as possible. Hold belt down in driven sheaves and loop front of belt over drive clutch shaft.

  4. Hold belt as high as possible on sheaves. Install stationary sheave over shaft splines. Start nut and tighten finger tight while moving belt and sheave to ensure FULL engagement of stationary sheave splines with shaft splines.
