IMPORTANT: The clutch cable must be slack when

lever is disengaged.

a. With clutch lever disengaged, loosen jam nut

on cable adjuster.

b. Turn adjuster body to remove all slack from the

cable. Do not stretch spring or move lower

clutch arm.

c. Finger tighten the jam nut and then turn back

the adjuster body 2 turns.

d. Hold adjuster body with pliers and tighten jam

nut with wrench.

3. Check spring length.

a. Measure the length of the clutch cable spring.

b. Engage and hold the attachment clutch lever.

c. Measure the length of the spring again. The

spring should be 3/16

– 3/8 in. (4.7 – 9.5 mm)

longer when the lever is engaged.

d. If spring does not stretch at least 3/16 in.

(4.7

mm), or the belt tension is insufficient to

throw snow properly, remove the attachment

belt idler (see

Figure 7) and replace it in the

hole on the idler arm closer to the belt. Adjust

cable slack until spring stretch is 3/16

– 3/8 in.

(4.7– 9.5

mm). (Increased spring stretch will

increase belt tension).
