BELT REMOVAL

NOTE
Inspect the entire clutch outlet duct (including the outlet
duct screen) when replacing a drive belt. Remove any
debris found in the outlet duct or outlet duct screen.
1. Tilt up the rear cargo box. Loosen the hose clamp
securing the intake hose to the airbox (A) and the
one securing the engine intake hose (B) to the
airbox.
2. Using a 10mm socket, remove the (3) screws (C)
retaining the airbox to the frame. Lift the airbox
assembly up so it sits slightly higher than the PVT
cover to ease of clutch cover removal.

3. Using a 10mm wrench, remove the grease zerk
fitting (D) on the upper rear control arm. Using a
8mm socket, remove the (8) screws retaining the
outer clutch cover.
4. Remove the outer clutch cover from the vehicle.
5. Mark the drive belt direction of rotation so that it can
be installed in the same direction.
6. Push down hard on the top of the belt and squeeze
the belt together between the drive and driven clutch
so the belt moves down into the driven clutch. NOTE:
On 2014 Non-EBS Models loosen the driven clutch
retaining bolt to help spread the clutch sheaves.
7. Remove belt off the bottom of the driven clutch and
slowly turn the driven clutch counter-clockwise to aid
in removal.
