Clutch Disassembly; Bearing Inspection - Polaris 2013 RANGER RZR S Service Manual

Clutch Disassembly

1. Using a permanent marker, mark the cover, spider,
and moveable and stationary sheaves for reference,
as the cast in X's may not have been in alignment
before disassembly.
2. Mark the stationary sheave and clutch shaft to verify
the shaft has not turned in the sheave after tightening
the spider during clutch assembly.
3. Remove cover bolts evenly in a cross pattern and
remove cover plate.
4. Inspect cover bushing (A). The outer cover bushing is
manufactured with a Teflon™ coating. Wear is
determined by the amount of Teflon™ remaining on
the bushing.
Cover Bushing Inspection:
Replace the cover bushing if more
brass than Teflon™ is visible on
the bushing. Refer to bushing
replacement in this chapter.

Clutch Spring Inspection".

Bearing Inspection

1. Rotate the clutch bearing in both clockwise and
counter-clockwise directions.
• Non-EBS: The non-braking bearing should rotate
both directions on the shaft with only a slight
amount of drag.
• EBS: The one-way
clockwise (when viewed from cover plate side)
with only a slight amount of drag. When rotated
counter-clockwise the one-way bearing should
lock to the shaft without slipping.
2. Verify there is no binding or rough spots. If problems
are noted continue with disassembly.
