Newbies issues on day 1!
« on: April 29, 2023, 05:04:59 PM »
Help required ?? Hi everyone sorry for the first post been a bad one lol..
Anyway I recently purchased a zforce 1000 2018..all exited and prepared ie few stairs tools water food wct went out for the first trip ..brilliant fun all seemed fine on road and trail then all of a sudden bang ..lost drive instantly knew belt had snapped...after a roadside repair from videos online and due to the spares I had off previous owner and ones I hed luckily managed after 3 hours to get most the old rope out of the secondary clutch but still bit I couldn't remove!got the belt on all seemed fine I took it easy on way back home only 4 miles luckily and parked it up .

Now this morning I took it out again all food but then I realised it was only doing max speed of 30 mph before hitting the limiter of 7500..??? I took the case off the clutch and the belt seem to look slack??? With no info to relate how to tention I drove home fine   up to the max speed it runs pulls fine but will only do 30mph .and also won't reverse about 2 mph without limiter and revs are at 4000 rpm.

Have I done something wrong some 🤔

Welcome. Well, you said you didn't get all the "Rope" out of the secondary the first time so...it's time to remove both clutches and do a complete inspection and cleaning. Belts should last much longer and once the CVT is understood and is operating properly, the better chance it will have...and nothing teaches better then true hands-on. I presume you need a service manual so the link below will send you to one I have. Download it quickly as the link will expire in 24 hours.

You should know that grenading belts sometimes damage sheaves so take a close look at those as well.

Still haven't properly cleaned and serviced both clutches...so that must be step #1.

Agreed, you have the answer to your issue. Take this advice and do it before taking it out again, so that way you don't cause further issues.
