TIP
Apply the parking brake before replacing the
V-belt.
1. Remove the shroud and the left side cov-
er, and then remove the drive guard.
(See pages 17 and 44 for removal proce-
dures.)
2. Rotate the secondary sliding sheave
clockwise and push it so that it separates
from the secondary fixed sheave.
3. Pull the V-belt up over the secondary
fixed sheave.
4. Remove the V-belt from the secondary
sheave assembly and primary sheave
assembly.
5. Temporarily install the new V-belt on the
secondary sheave assembly only, and
then measure the V-belt position. Do not
force the V-belt between the sheaves; the
secondary sliding and fixed sheaves
must touch each other.
6. If the V-belt position is incorrect, adjust it
by removing or adding a spacer on each
V-belt position adjusting bolt.
