GASKETS NEEDED TO INSTALL CLUTCH KIT

1. Remove the key from the ignition switch. Remove the left and right side lower front fenders. Remove the left and
right side inner fender wells and the metal brackets holding them on.
2. Remove the oil drain plug from the oil tank and the motor (one at a time). If you can carefully drain the oil into a
clean container you should be able to reuse it. Remove both oil lines going into the oil tank and unplug the oil
sensor at the bottom of the tank. Remove the five long bolts that hold the oil tank to the crankcase, keep track of
each bolt length and location. Once all the bolts are removed slowly slide the oil tank away from the crankcase.
Check to make sure the rubber o-rings are in place and in good condition where each oil line goes into the tank and
where the tank connects to the crankcase cover.
3. Remove the upper side body panel by the shifter knob. Remove the cotter pin and the pin for the shifter linkage.
Using a screwdriver push in on the end of the spring and gently pull down on shifter linkage.
4. Remove the left side plastic motor cover and unplug the wire harness located behind the cover. Remove the metal
bracket that the plastic side cover was bolted to. Unbolt the solenoid on the left side of the motor (looks like a
starter) and let it rest on the foot rest.
5. Mark the gear shift linkage where it fits onto the splined shaft coming from the motor with a paint marker or lightly
tap with a hammer and a chisel or punch for proper alignment when assembling the machine back together. Loosen
and remove the bolt and clamp holding the shift linkage to the shaft and slide linkage off of the shaft.
6. Remove all of the crankcase bolts, keep track of each bolt length and location. Slowly slide the crankcase cover off
the machine. It should slide easily, if it doesn’t check to make sure all of the bolts have been removed. If the cover
seems to be stuck it might be rubbing on the rubber pad on the skid plate, if this is the case gently push up on the
cover or down on the skid plate to slide the cover off the machine.
