BELT MEASUREMENT
Long life can be expected for this drive assembly as long
as the drive belt is kept properly aligned.
The clutch will not shift correctly if the drive belt width is
less than 1.14 inch. Measure the CVT drive belt (Figure 32)
every 100 hours of use to make sure it is within the specified
tolerance.
