Thought i mention this to people doing this job, everything else went like in the video, expect, the plastic cover has been under heat and stress, and the molding might not be perfect. So the hardest part of this job ended up being trying to get the holes and the bolts to line up. (tip, get every one just finger tight, and look at the hole with a flashlight, look what direction you need to push the plastic to line the hole with the bolt)
Excellent video. This is the best look at this procedure on the 450 Rotax. I have a question I hope you can answer. To remove that starter gear/bendix. Do you need to remove the fixed sheave? Or just the primary drive pulley?
The belt is actually non-directional and the arrow is just to ensure is you take the belt off you put it back the same way. In this instance this was a new machine from the factory and we reinstalled the same belt, hence back on the same way.
@@atvservicesmakes sense,although the arrow usually indicates which way the cords are wound in the belt. So when you blow a belt or start to loose cords in the belt. They do not wrap around the primary clutch or around the PTO shaft and ripe out the seal.
I’ve seen 15 year old atvs with the oem belt and I’ve seen 2022s/2023s on their 5th belt. All depends on how it’s used, tires size, load, clutches, etc. it’s a whole combination of things to make one really last.
I’d definitely recommend storing the tools, and a spare belt with you especially if you are ice fishing. Buddy of mine got stuck due to a belt break!!

Yes the front inner half needs to be removed to get proper access to the starter bendix.
I can’t get the rear hose back on
I think the belt went in backwards, the arrow should always point in the direction that the drive clutch rotates.

907 Gladiator We can both be right on this one. The clutch on the Outlander 450 turns clockwise unlike nearly everything else 👍
@@atvservices wow, I did not know that. Good to know .👍
You should definitely note that in your video!
Can you please let me know the name of the tool or where can I get it? The clutch separation tool?
It should have came with your can am.
@@Thebrianbrown it doesn’t come with it dude you have to buy it
all the tools used in this video is available here www.atvservices.com/beltchange
How many miles/kms does the belt last?
There is no recommended lasting time it really depends on usage, if machine tows or under load.

I can't understand most of what he saying
Sorry about that, separated by a common language, that was my best slowed down English too!
What a shitshow to get the case off
