Drive Clutch Cleaning and Inspection
1. Use a dry, lint-free cloth to clean clutch parts. See following CAUTION .
CAUT ION
• Do not lubricate the drive clutch. Lubricants attract dirt and dust, which interfere with proper
clutch operation.
• Use only a dry cloth and lightly wipe the shaft of the fixed face assembly (15) (Figure 13b-33,
Page 13b-35). Do not use a brush or steel wool. These abrasives will damage the surface of
the shaft.
• Do not use solvents. Solvents will damage the lubricating characteristics of the bushings.
2. Inspect the belt contact surfaces of the clutch sheaves for wear. If any area of a sheave contact surface
has wear of 0.060 inch (1.52 mm) or more, the clutch should be replaced.
