11. Belt Drive System:
A V belt drive system transmits power from
the engine to the rotor.
A centrifugal clutch on the engine output shaft
engages when the RPM reaches 1400 RPM.
Always set the throttle to the 1/4 position
when starting to prevent the clutch engaging
and the rotor turning when starting.
Loosen the engine mounting bolts and slide
the engine to the required position to set the
belt tension. Be sure to check that the pul-
leys are in alignment whenever the engine is
moved.
