Clutch System
Drive Belt Installation
1. Verify the driven clutch sheaves are open. If they are not, install the
L-wrench and open the sheaves.
NOTE: When installing the belt, verify POLARIS or the part number can be
read from the outside of the snowmobile.
2. Drop the drive belt over the drive clutch and pull back the slack.
The belt cord line should be flush with, or slightly above, the outer
circumference of the driven clutch sheaves.
3. Hold the belt down between
the sheaves and roll the
bottom portion over the
outer clutch sheave. Work
the belt to the outer edge of
the sheave.
4. Turn the L-wrench counter-
clockwise to tighten the
sheaves. Work the belt
around the clutches as you
remove the L-wrench.
Doing so will set the belt in
“low gear”.
5. Reinstall the wrench to the
wrench bracket to secure the
fender to the console.
6. Reinstall the side panel.
7. Break in the new belt. See
page 76.
