Clutch System Clutch Alignment Offset Clutch center distance and alignment (+) are crucial to maintaining optimum performance. See your Owner's Manual Supplement for the recommended offset between the drive and driven clutches with the belt removed. 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. MAINTENANCE + Clutch Center Distance See your Owner's Manual Supplement for recommended center distance for your machine. If adjustment is necessary, see your dealer. 101
