Clutch System
Drive Belt Installation
1. Drop the drive belt over the
drive clutch and pull back the
slack.
Tip: To ensure satisfactory belt life,
install belts so they operate in
the same direction of rotation by
positioning the identification
numbers so that you can read
them. If required, separate the
sheaves as outlined in the belt
removal procedures.
2. Rotate the L-wrench counter-
clockwise to tighten the
sheaves while working the belt to the outer edge of the sheaves.
3. Remove the L-wrench and store it in the tool kit.
4. Reinstall the side panel.
5. Close and secure the hood.
Drive Belt
Belt width and length must match the center distance of the clutches and
sheave width of the drive clutch. Polaris recommends the use of O.E.M.
belts. Other belts may match the dimensions, but can drastically change
the shift pattern, resulting in poor performance.
Tip: A worn belt will continue to function, but will not deliver maximum perfor-
mance. Always carry a spare belt in case of an emergency.
