Figure 5-11: Remove clevis pin from outer hole in forward adjustable link and move to in- ner hole in link.

NOTE: While pushing inward on the forward idler arm, be sure that the forward drive belt is moved off to the right side of the tiller. This creates more room to install the clevis pin when the forward idler arm is pushed inward.

IMPORTANT: When the clevis pin is installed in the inner hole of the forward adjustable link, the number of additional belt tension adjustments are limited. If, with future tension adjustments, you find that you cannot screw the forward clutch rod any farther into the rectangular nut on the forward clutch bracket, it means that the forward drive belt must be replaced. Before doing so, the clevis pin must be returned to the OUTSIDE hole in the forward adjustable link.

8. Replace the forward drive belt in the High speed groove (groove closest to en- gine) or the Low speed groove (rearmost) groove of the engine drive pulley and in the matching groove of the transmission pul- ley. Be sure the belt is to the inside of the wire formed belt guide (I, Figure 5-12) and to the inside of the forward drive idler pul- ley (J).

To Check and Adjust Tension on the Re- verse Drive Belt:

1.Remove the belt cover after first shut- ting off the engine, disconnecting the spark plug wire, and allowing the engine and muffler to cool down.

2.Stand at the front of the tiller and use your left hand to push the reverse idler arm (K, Figure 5-13) inward as far as pos- sible (the reverse idler pulley [L] is at- tached to the reverse idler arm).

Hold the idler arm in this position and look at the position of the belt tension guide mark (M, Figure 5-14) that is stamped into the face of the reverse adjustable link (N, Figure 5-14).

•The tension is correct if the guide mark (M, Figure5-14) is anywhere to the left of the guide pin (O), as viewed from the
