Clutch System
n Drive Belt Deflection
Measure belt deflection with both
clutches at rest and in their full
neutral position.
Place a straight edge on the belt
and apply downward pressure
while measuring at point A. This
measurement should be 1 1/4"
(3.2 cm).
Drive Belt Adjustment
1. Install the L-wrench into the open threaded hole in the outer sheave
of the clutch (see page 96). Turn the wrench clockwise slightly to
remove pressure from the sheaves.
2. Loosen the 7/16" jam nut.
3. Using a 1/8" Allen wrench, turn the set screw inward (clockwise) to
increase the distance between the sheaves or outward
(counterclockwise) to decrease the distance.
4. Tighten the jam nut. Store the L-wrench in the tool kit.
To r q u e S t o p

ance. With clutches in proper align-
ment, measure rear torque stop
clearance from the engine case. Rear
torque stop clearance should be .010"-
.030" (.25-.75mm). Adjust if neces-
sary. Secure the nut.
