Drive Clutch Disassembly and Inspection
1. Remove outer drive clutch sheave and drive belt. Note parts
assembly order.
2. Slide sheave and cam plate off crankshaft as an assembly.
NOTE: When removing primary sliding sheave and
plate assembly, hold cam plate and sliding sheave
together. This prevents the rollers from falling out of
the assembly.
6. Inspect sheave faces (E) for grooves or wear. Check
bushings (F) and seals in the moveable sheave. The sleeve
should be a close, smooth fit in the bushings and seals
fit tightly on the sleeve.
3. Remove cam plate.
4. Inspect surface of sleeve (A) for wear, pitting, or damage.
7. Remove and inspect each roller. Replace as a set if any
have flat spots or if worn (they should be cylindrical).
5. Inspect cam plate for wear on surface (B) and splines (C).
Replace cover guides (D) as a set.
8. Inspect the roller tracks (G) and both sides of the cam
plate tabs (H) for wear. Compare the drive and deceleration
side of the tabs to determine if drive side is worn. Replace
drive clutch assembly if tabs or roller tracks are worn.
