Roller, Pin, and Thrust Washer Inspection

1. Inspect all rollers, bushings and roller pins by pulling a flat
metal rod across the roller. Turn roller with your finger. If
you notice resistance, galling, or flat spots, replace rollers,
pins and thrust washers in sets of three. Also inspect to see
if roller and bushing are separating. Bushing must fit
tightly in roller. Use the Roller Pin Tool (PN 2870910) to
replace rollers and pins. Take care not to damage roller
bushing or bearing surface of the new pin during
installation.
2. Rubber backed buttons can be used in all RANGER clutches
if the hollow roller pin is changed to the solid roller pin.
NOTE: The rubber side of the button is positioned
toward the solid roller pin.

Button To Tower Clearance Inspection

1. Inspect for any clearance between spider button to tower.
If clearance exists, replace all buttons and inspect surface
of towers. See "Spider Removal" procedure.
Button to Tower Clearance:
000-.001"
2. Inspect sheave surfaces. Replace the entire clutch if worn,
damaged or cracked.

unit. Never replace parts with used parts from
another clutch assembly!
