By far best video out there on how to easily remove the belt cover and drive belt. Removing air filter and grease fitting is key. Not in the manual. Thank you.
I never monkey with the air filter box or hose, just the zert with a 10mm wrench, slide out cover from bottom with a bit of tugging on the bottom. Leave the top till the bottom comes.
im no puss...6ft 240 I could not get the belt to squeeze down like this. For the life of me why did polaris go to this design....exactly like the video states. If your out on the trail...whats a person to do??
I rolled most of the belt on. And then used a 18” pipe wrench to turn last bit. I broke down with tracks on in the deep snow. I tried like the video said. Easy in the dry shop on flat ground.
I ended up using a web style filter wrench and got a bit more leverage and got mine on, placed it on the hub of the secondary clutch and rotated the clutch. Hope that helps anyone else.👍👍

@@armedfarm3429 You’d be on the factory belt if it were a Yamaha. I maintained a fleet of 30 UTVs and ATVs for six years for an Ag company. Had 8 year old Yamahas with 10k+ miles and thousands of hours with the factory belt. Brand new Polaris’ would break belts regularly. I begged my boss to buy only Yamaha but he kept buying the Polarises because they were cheap.
This is a load of crap; Polaris original belts are the best in the business. Quit buying the belts off of E-Bay made in China with the words Original Polaris OEM on the card container. They see you coming, LMAO.@@2003lightning1
@@2003lightning1 Yer a funny man! LMAO. My original belt was same width as the second belt, about 1/32nd" less than new. Still good for a lot of hours. The 3rd belt went on @ over 7000 miles & 2210 hrs. pretty good for 2 belts I thought & is a split blonde fuzz hair wider than the first 2. Whilst I was changing it, I wondered why I was even doing this. So, I have 2 spare belts for my2017 900 xp, @ 69yrs old, I reckon this will be my last belt. What ya think Holmes?

Excellent video! Concise, great camera location and lighting, no wasted words. Thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching!

Maybe put it on to where it can't go anymore and cranking it?🤔
I did it in the dunes at pismo. I was able to squeeze down a few times to loosen the belt then used a small pry bar to help walk it off

What I the torc on the secondary clutch bolt and would I use a red lock tight ?
So wth do you do when you cant get the new belt back on. I can get the old belt back on easy. What gives?

good info,thanks..
what if the belt is broken how do you get it open?
Excellent video!
So I squeezed the belt to take it off but I guess I rotated it and now the new one won’t go on . What do I do?
You should just be able to re-spread the secondary clutch to make enough clearance to reinstall the belt. - Wes

What years have this style clutches?
We list the years and models at 0:17 in this video and in the description.
Would a ranger start / turn over with a blown belt? Was driving for less than a minute after starting and the ranger shuddered and instantly died
Definitely can and will, they wrap themselves up
Is it possible to get a drive belt capable of handing 150 hp diesel .Thinking of a boat project
A lot of modern side by sides produce over 150 horsepower so most quality drive belts should handle that just fine.
Have you seen what the big sleds put out now-a days? !50 hp diesel sounds like a nightmare to me anyway.
If the belt is the same shape right or left why does it matter what way it goes on.
If you take it off to inspect it or blow out the crud & put it back on you will know how it went on. Same way
thanks for helping!
Helmet buyers guide?
