Adjust the Attachment Clutch Cable

Spring Extension

1. Check the attachment clutch cable

spring extension.

Measure the length of the attachment

clutch cable spring with the clutch lever

disengaged.

Then measure the attachment clutch

spring with the clutch lever engaged.

See Figure 27. The spring should be

1/2 – 9/16 in. (12.7 – 14.3 mm) longer

when the clutch lever is engaged.

• If spring extension is within the

specified range, go to Check

Attachment Brake (Figure 28) on

page 26.

• If spring extension is outside of

specified range, go to step 2.

2. Adjust cable length (See Figure 27).

a. Loosen jam nut on cable.

b. To increase spring extension,

adjust barrel down the cable and

tighten jam nut.

c. To decrease spring extension,

adjust barrel up the cable and

tighten jam nut.

Check Attachment Brake (Figure 28)

1. With the clutch lever disengaged, brake

pad must contact attachment belt. With

clutch lever engaged, brake pad must be

more than 1/16 in. (1.6 mm) from belt. If

there is more than 1/16 in. (1.6 mm) gap,

go to Check Belt Finger Clearance

(Figure 29) on page 27. If there is less

than 1/16 in. (1.6 mm) gap, go to Step 2.

2. If there is less than 1/16 in. (1.6 mm)

gap between brake pad and belt, follow

these steps:

a. To increase brake pad gap,

loosen idler adjustment nut, and

move idler away from belt.

Position idler to achieve a 1/16 in.

(1.6 mm) minimum brake pad gap

and a 1/2 – 7/8 in. (12.7 –

22.2 mm) gap between the

plastic roller and the frame.

b. Check the clutch cable spring

extension and adjust as

necessary to achieve a

1/2 – 9/16 in. (12.7 – 14.3 mm)

spring extension.

c. If the cable needed adjustment,

recheck gaps described in step 1.

Repeat steps as necessary until

brake clearance, roller gap and

spring extension are within

specified ranges.

IMPORTANT: If adjustments cannot be

brought into specified ranges see your Dealer

for repairs.
