DRIVEN CLUTCH INSTALLATION
1. To install the driven clutch, reverse the removal procedure. Before tightening the center bolt to 14 ft.lbs.
(16/19 N-m), make sure that the flat washer (13), is installed between the center bolt and the clutch
(Figure 16-16, Page 16-13).
CLUTCH ALIGNMENT
If the engine or transaxle has been removed from the vehicle, or the engine mounts loosened, or if the vehi-
cle seems to vibrate excessively, the clutch alignment should be checked. Use a clutch alignment tool (Club
Car Part No. 1014498) to check clutch alignment as follows:
1. Remove the drive belt from the clutches (See Page 16-4).
2. Remove the driven clutch from the transmission (See Page 16-14).
3. Slide the clutch alignment tool onto the shaft of the transmission until it seats against the transmission.
4. Swing the clutch alignment tool around and position the other end on the shaft of the drive clutch as
shown (Figure 16-22).
5. Although slight grazing of front or rear edge of the slot in the tool against the center shaft bearing is
acceptable, the alignment tool should come down over the center shaft bearing of the drive clutch with-
out having to be forced. The alignment is within limits if the tool just touches the fixed face of the drive
clutch or if it is no further than .060 of an inch (1.5 mm) from the fixed face (Figure 16-23).
6. If the clutches are out of alignment, the engine mounting bolts must be loosened and the engine moved
to bring the clutches into alignment per Step 6.
7. Tighten the engine mounting bolts to 22-25 ft.lbs. (30/34 N-m).
8. Check clutch alignment again.
