Drive Belt Deflection

Measure belt deflection with both

clutches at rest and in their full

neutral position.

Place a straight edge (1) on the

belt and apply downward pressure

while measuring at point 2. This

measurement should be 1 1/4

inches (3.2 cm).

Drive Belt Adjustment

Belt deflection can be adjusted without removing the clutch from the

jackshaft.

1. Loosen the 7/16-inch jam nut on the belt width adjuster.
2. Using a 1/8-inch Allen wrench, adjust the threaded set screw as

needed.

NOTE: Turn the set screw in (clockwise) to increase the distance

between the sheaves and out (counterclockwise) to decrease

the distance.

3. Tighten the jam nut.
