Clutch Adjustment Procedure

[AX2007]

So I wasn't able to move the clutch arm counterclockwise even with the hollow screw and the lever adjustments all the way in, so what I did was squeeze the clutch, remove the arm, release the clutch, and replace the arm. In this way I was able to "walk" the clutch arm over 3 notches! It's not slipping now, or is it stalling in 1st with the brakes engaged.

The clutch lever still feels a little "loose" for my taste, but I think I can adjust it from here.

Something I noticed that I didn't know before: The arm will move if it isn't tightened down. I made a mark with a magic marker to (visually) see how far I can move it over, and it would slide back if I didn't tighten the screw.


Thank You All for the help. This forum is one of the best communities I have ever had the pleasure of being part of.

chef, are you sure clockwise is the correct direction? Unless I am mistaken, it looks like counter clockwise would give him more of what he wants.

You're right!
