Check Attachment Brake
(Figure 34)
1. With the clutch lever disengaged, brake
pad must contact attachment belt. With
clutch lever engaged, brake pad must be
more than 1/16 in. (1.6 mm) from belt. If
there is more than 1/16 in. (1.6 mm) gap,
go to Check Belt Finger Clearance on
page 29. If there is less than 1/16 in. (1.6
mm) gap, go to Step 2.
2. If there is less than 1/16 in. (1.6 mm)
gap between brake pad and belt, follow
these steps:
a. To increase brake pad gap,
loosen idler adjustment nut, and
move idler away from belt.
Position idler to achieve a 1/16 in.
(1.6 mm) minimum brake pad gap
and a 1/2 – 7/8 in. (12.7 –
22.2 mm) gap between the
plastic roller and the frame.
b. Check the clutch cable spring
extension and adjust as
necessary to achieve a
1/2 – 9/16 in. (12.7 – 14.3 mm)
spring extension.
c. If the cable needed adjustment,
recheck gaps described in step 1.
Repeat steps as necessary until
brake clearance, roller gap and
spring extension are within
specified ranges.
IMPORTANT: If adjustments cannot be
brought into specified ranges see your Dealer
for repairs.
Check Belt Finger Clearance
(Figure 35)
1. With clutch lever engaged, the belt
finger located opposite the belt idler
must be less than 1/8 in. (3,2 mm) from
belt, but not touching the belt.
To adjust belt finger, loosen the bolts and
move the finger to the proper position.
Tighten the bolts and recheck the belt
finger clearance.
2. Replace the belt cover and tigthen
hardware.
TRACTION DRIVE CLUTCH
ADJUSTMENT
(Figure 36 and 37)
If drive slips, adjust traction clutch to
compensate for friction disc wear.
To test traction clutch (Figure 36):
1. Put unit in first forward speed.
2. Without engine running, push unit
forward while slowly moving the traction
drive clutch lever toward the handlebar.
3. Measure distance between lever and
handlebar when the wheels begin to
brake. If distance is not 7-1/2 – 8 in.
(19.0 – 20.3 cm), adjust the traction
clutch.
