SHIFT WEIGHT INSPECTION
1. Remove shift weight bolts and weights. Inspect as
shown. The contact surface of the weight should be
smooth and free of dents or gall marks. Inspect the
weight pivot bore and pivot bolts for wear or galling.
If weights or bolts are worn or broken, replace in
sets of three with new bolts.
NOTE: A damaged
shift weight is usually caused by a damaged or
stuck roller in the spider assembly.
See roller
inspection, page 6.16.
BUTTON TO TOWER CLEARANCE INSPECTION
1. Inspect spider button to tower clearance. If
clearance exists, replace all buttons (and O-ring or
washer where applicable) and inspect surface of
towers. See spider removal page 6.15.
2. Inspect sheave surfaces. Replace the entire
service clutch if worn, damaged or cracked.
WARNING
The clutch assembly is a precisely balanced unit. Never
replace parts with used parts from another clutch as-
sembly!
All PVT system maintenance repairs must be per-
formed only by an authorized Polaris service technician
who has attended a Polaris sponsored service training
seminar and understands the proper procedures as
outlined in this manual.
Because of the critical nature
and precision balance incorporated into the PVT
system, it is absolutely essential that no attempt at
disassembly or repair be made without factory au-
thorized special tools and service procedures.
