CLUTCH SYSTEM
Clutch Alignment
1. Remove belt and install the Clutch Offset Alignment Tool
(PN 2872292) as shown.
2. With tool touching rear of driven clutch inner sheave, the
distance at point “A” should be 1/8”.
NOTE: If the distance is greater than 1/8, or less
than 1/16,, clutch alignment must be adjusted as
follows:
3. Remove drive and driven clutch. See “PVT
DIASSEMBLY” at the beginning of the chapter.
4. Remove PVT inner cover.
5. Loosen all engine mounts. Move front of engine to the right
or left slightly until alignment is correct.
6. Tighten engine mounts and verify alignment is correct.
7. Measure belt deflection and measure offset both above and
below shaft centerlines. Adjust if necessary.
NOTE: On some models, minor adjustments can be
made by adding shims between the frame and front
lower left engine mount to increase the distance at
point “A”. If a shim is present, it can be removed to
decrease the distance at point “A”.
Clutch Offset
IMPORTANT: Inspect clutch alignment and center
distance before adjusting offset.
Offset is correct when rear of tool contacts rear of inner sheave
with driven clutch pushed completely inward, spacers installed
(if required) on shaft and bolt torqued to specification.
1. Install alignment tool as shown. Remember to measure
above and below the shaft centerlines.
2. Adjust offset by adding or removing spacer washers
between back of driven clutch and spacer.
