3. Adjust the air gap so that a .015 inch feeler gauge
slides in between the clutch lining and friction plate
with light pressure (Figure 43). The gap can be
decreased by turning the adjusting nut clockwise
(Figure 43). The maximum service gap is 0.030 inch.
4. Rotate the clutch by hand and adjust all three air gaps.
After all three gaps have been set, check all three
again. Adjusting one gap can alter the other gaps.
5. Reconnect the clutch electrical connector.

high, the battery will run down more rapidly than if
the machine is stored in a location where temperatures

CALIFORNIA
Proposition 65 Warning
Battery posts, terminals, and related
accessories contain lead and lead compounds,
chemicals known to the State of California
to cause cancer and reproductive harm.
Wash hands after handling.
Battery electrolyte contains sulfuric acid which
is a deadly poison and causes severe burns.
• Do not drink electrolyte and avoid contact
with skin, eyes or clothing. Wear safety
glasses to shield your eyes and rubber gloves
to protect your hands.
• Fill the battery where clean water is always
available for flushing the skin.
Keep the top of the battery clean by washing it
periodically with a brush dipped in ammonia or
bicarbonate of soda solution. Flush the top surface with
water after cleaning it. Do not remove the fill caps while
cleaning the battery.
The battery cables must be tight on the terminals to
provide good electrical contact.
If corrosion occurs at the terminals, disconnect the
cables, negative (–) cable first, and scrape the clamps and
terminals separately. Reconnect the cables, positive (+)
cable first, and coat the terminals with petroleum jelly.
