Drive Belt Condition
Periodically check the condition and tension of the drive belt, and
always carry a spare. Inspect the belt for signs of excessive wear:
frayed edges, missing cogs, cracks and excessive looseness. Replace
the belt if any of these conditions exist.
For improved drive-away during extremely cold temperatures, remove
the belt and warm it to room temperature. Reinstall it before starting
the snowmobile.
The following procedures apply to standard, electronic reverse and
TEAM driven clutches.
Drive Belt Removal
1. Be sure the key switch is off and the engine has come to a
complete stop. Apply the brake (or lock the parking brake if
equipped).
2. Open the hood, remove the clutch guard retaining pin and open t he
clutch guard.
3. Standard Clutch: Skip to step 4.
TEAM Clutch: Locate the L-wrench in the tool kit and install it
into the open threaded hole in the outer sheave of the clutch.
Rotate the wrench until the sheaves open far enough to remove the
belt.
4. Firmly grasp the belt midway
between the clutches and pull
upward and rearward to remove.
