This clutch blew apart on a hill climb. It not only stopped the snowmobile, by the time the sled stopped rolling the sled was totaled.


8 OUT OF 10 snowmobilers have clutching problems and are paying too much to get them fixed.


5 out of 10 dealerships have mechanics that do not have the experience to fix most clutching problem. To properly set up a snowmobile clutch you need to know how it works.


Most of the time factory settings will work. But for maximum performance you need to know how your clutch works.


If you plan on changing the performance of you engine you will need to know how to set up your clutches or pay a mechanic to do this. Clutching is very easy when someone explains it to you.

The only way to know the condition of the clutches on your snowmobile is to know what you are looking for.

Do you ever look at your clutches? Do you know what to look for in a clutch that is about ready to fail?

When you take you snowmobile to the shop to get fixed, do you know what’s wrong with it?

To operate a snowmobile with worn out parts or parts that are just getting ready to fail and leave you stranded 20 or 30 miles from your truck is something you do not want to happen.

When you own a snowmobile, your clutches will need to be cleaned at least once a year. Clutches should be cleaned every 500 miles and rebuilt about every 1200 miles.

If you trail ride and ride 2000 mile a season you may need to clean it four times or rebuild your two times a year. You can do the maintenance yourself or pay a shop.

If you have more than one machine this could cost you about $120.00 for cleaning your clutches, or $300.00 to rebuild the clutches, plus the cost of parts.

When you go to a shop to get your clutch cleaned or adjusted, do the mechanics really know what they are doing.

If you own a snowmobile and are having clutching problems on the trail or mountain, will you be able to explain to the mechanic what is needed.
You may know there is a problem with your sled.But will you know if it is clutching or some other problem, like carburetion or poor fuel.

You tell the mechanic that your machine is not performing correctly. He will ask you to describe the problem.

If you do not known how a clutch works you could describe a carburetion problem and it may be a clutching problem. Mechanic get paid for shop time you could be spending money on cleaning and adjusting your carburetor and it is clutching problem.

The mechanic may clean your clutches or repair them, while you get charged $100.00 and this did not fix the problem.

It may be something like low RPM’s and the mechanic did not know, so you take it back and the mechanic starts asking you what it is doing.

If you do not know how to answer his question, the mechanic will have to ride the snowmobile or go with you and see what it is doing. The cost to fix your snowmobile just doubled.

Most shops have a minimum shop rate of $30.00 just to have a mechanic look at your clutches. This is about 15 minutes in time.

I have work on all brands of snowmobiles they are all pretty much the save. The primary clutches on a skidoo may look different then a Yamaha or a Polaris or Artic Cat, but they operate the same way.


The more HP that you put on your clutches the more you will need to know how to set them up.

If you ride in different elevations, you will want to know what weights and springs to use.

How to set your RPM for shift out and your run out RPM’s.

• Shift out RPM (this is the RPM that your sled starts to move).

• Run out RPM (this is the RPM that your sled needs to rev to for maximum HP).

Know why you need a secondary that must operate properly.

• How to set your back shift to keep your RPM. up

• How to clean your secondary.

• How to set up your clutch.

Order this book and get started cleaning or rebuilding your clutches. Or help your snowmobile buddy setup his clutches.

The only thing that I would like is a note why you returned it. This is what you will learn from this book.

The primary spring is for setting the RPM of your engine. The spring is one part of setting the force on the belt.

The primary spring has two settings: the pretension and the rate.

Pretension is the force that it takes to start to compress the spring and is what sets the engagement or when your snowmobile starts to move.

This is when the clutch sheave starts to move close together, squeezing the belt and putting force on the belt, so the belt starts to move out on the sheaves.

The clutch must apply enough force to belt to move the sled forward and not break the belt, and to force the secondary open.

The rate sets the RPM at top engine speed and is the total pound per square inch that the spring has when compressed to 1 ¼ inch in length.

Most manufactures have already done the testing on different weights and springs, so what you want to do is start with a factory setting. And use this as a starting baseline.

Altitude, temperature, and horsepower will all effect the clutch setting. This may also be the reason to make changes. When only one of them changes you will see your engines RPM change.

Clutch spring and weight



Weight changes the engagement of your clutch and the top RPM of your engine. Weights comes in many shapes and sizes.

Like I said earlier, start with the factory setting and change from there. If you change the weight from a 38 gram to a 40 gram and you leave the spring the same, you will change the engagement to a lower RPM. You will also lower your top end RPM or what is also known as RPM shift out.

By changing the shape of the weight you will change how hard the snowmobile pulls and how much side force is added to the belt.

Yamaha uses weights that have holes in them called the inner and outer holes. This will let you add weight to the weight for better tuning.

Clutch weights



The reason this weight has a groove in this location is from holding your sled at one constant speed and RPM. This is very common in trail riding.

This is what a new weight should look like.
