Premium All-Season Grease or a similar high quality grease to prevent

corrosion. See page 128 for part numbers.

Clutch and Drive System

Remove the drive belt and store in a cool dry location. Lubricate the

sheave faces of the drive and driven clutches with a light coat of oil or

outlined in the Master Repair Manual. See your dealer.

Separate the electrical connector blocks and clean any corrosive

build-up from the connectors. Lubricate or pack the connector blocks

with dielectric grease and re-connect. NOTE: Do not grease the TPS

Replace worn or frayed electrical wire and connectors. Be sure the

wiring harness is properly secured away from sharp edges, steering

linkage, moving parts, and hot exhaust parts.
