DRIVE BELT ADJUSTMENT
1. Stop the engine, and remove the
spark plug cap.
2. Remove the 6 x 50 mm flange
bolt from the V-belt cover and
remove the V-belt cover.
3. Adjust the clutch cable (see page
36). Belt tension is correct when
the distance from the top of the
belt to the top of the tensioner
roller is 2.4 – 2.6 in (60 – 65 mm)
when the clutch is engaged.
4. To adjust, loosen the four engine
mounting bolts and the engine
stay tightening bolt, and move
the engine forward or backward
to get proper tension on the belt.
After adjusting the belt tension,
use a straightedge to make sure
that the outside face of the drive
pulley is flush with the outside
face of the driven pulley.
5. Loosen the belt stopper attaching
bolts. Adjust the clearance
between the belt stopper and the
belt as illustrated with the clutch
lever squeezed (engaged).
