FIRST HOURS
1_ CHECK BELT ADJUSTMENT
New Belts may stretch after the first few hours of operation
resulting in loss of power.
am With engine running, transmission in neutral, place Vari- drive Control Lever in "FAST" position (Fig. 11) and
check if Secondary Belt (Fig. 16 - Inset) rides flush with outside of Variator Sheave (DO NOT PUSH DOWN ON
CLUTCH PEDAL).
b, If Secondary Belt is riding down in groove of Variator Sheave adjustment is required,
2.
a With engine running, Transmission in "NEUTRAL" position, move Varidrive Control Lever to full "FAST"
position (Fig. 11)
b. Shut engine off and loosen Adjustment Nut on Bolt "A" for Variator Stop Plate (Fig. 16).
c, Start engine and run at idle Speed
d Slowly move Vafidrive Control Lever (Fig. 11) forward or backward until Secondary Belt is riding flush to 1/16" outside of Variator Sheave (Fig 16 - Inset).
NOTE: DO NOT PUSH DOWN ON CLUTCH PEDAL. e., Shut engine off holding Varidrive Control Lever in posi- tion as described in step d and tighten Adjustment Nut
on Bolt "A" (Fig. 16).,
f, Start engine and move Varidrive Control Lever to SLOW posttlon (F_g. 11). Primary Belt should ride flush to 1/16" out of Variator Sheave (Fig. 16 - Inset).
g Adjustment is complete when the Secondary Belt rides in the same position on the Variator Sheave in full "FAST" position, as the Primary Belt does in the "SLOW" position,
h
if Be t cannot be adjusted as described in step g replace
3.CHANGE ENGINE OIL
Changing Oil after the first two hours will help eliminate break4n residue which might be damaging to your Engine,

DO NOT OVERFILL,
FREGUENTLY
1_ CHECK BATTERY
aElectrolyte solutlon teve] in each Battery Ceil should be even with bottoms of tubes in cells (Fig. 19)o Add dis- tilled water if necessary NOTE: DO NOT OVERFILL
b, Keep Battery and Terminals clean, Refer to page !2,
step 6.
co Keep Battery Bolts tight.
d.Keep Vent Caps tight and small vent holes in Caps open. e_ Recharge SLOWLY at 3 amperes if necessary.
2, CHECK TIRE PRESSURE
Tire pressure in front should be t4 pounds and rear Tires should be 10 pounds_
