MAINTENANCE General Maintenance Clutch Alignment and Offset Clutch center distance and alignment (A) are crucial to maintaining optimum performance. See the specifications on page 109 for the recommended offset between the drive and driven clutches with the belt removed. The drive belt is a very important part of the drive system. Belt width and length must match the center distance of the clutches and sheave width of the drive clutch. For this reason, Polaris recommends that only O.E.M. belts be used. Other belts may match the dimensions, but can drastically change the shift pattern, resulting in poor performance. See your dealer for service and adjustments. NOTE: A worn belt will continue to function, but will not deliver maximum performance. Always carry a spare belt in case of an emergency.

General Maintenance
Clutch Alignment and Offset
Clutch center distance and alignment (A) are
crucial to maintaining optimum performance.
See the specifications on page 109 for the
recommended offset between the drive and
driven clutches with the belt removed.
The drive belt is a very important part of the drive
system. Belt width and length must match the
center distance of the clutches and sheave width of
the drive clutch. For this reason, Polaris
recommends that only O.E.M. belts be used.
Other belts may match the dimensions, but can
drastically change the shift pattern, resulting in
poor performance. See your dealer for service and
adjustments.
NOTE:
A worn belt will continue to function, but
will not deliver maximum performance.
Always carry a spare belt in case of an
emergency.
