I have a 2000 polaris scrambler 500 4x4. I have shredded one belt already which caused a huge crack in my clutch cover. I put a new belt on and i rolled and the belt turned itself around so that the slick end was on the clutch and that other big thing. The belt then started to lose the thread. I put the new clutch cover on today and cleaned up the old belt a little bit to make it edible, went out for a test run and clunk clunk clunk. I slowly rode back home, took the cover back off and the belt turned it self around again just by riding down the street. I dont want to put the new belt i picked up today on and risk shredding that one if there is a problomb. Also, how easy should it be to put a belt on, should you just be able to slip it on over the clutch and everything by hand. I DON'T KNOW???????? I would appreciate some tips or advise, thanks.

 

is there any marks in the groves of the cluchtes if not smooth on both sides could make belt twist. look at primary clutch all fingers even one could be stuck. look at clutchs good ...

 

how do i know if one is stuck

 

With the cover off put the machine in neutral and push it while watching the belt

 

is there somthing i should be watching for in particular
