Polaris OEM Drive Belt Change | Polaris RZR XP 1000

[@cerasaman]

Thank you. I love that you spent time on the little technical aspects like pressing back the clutch.

[@Maxvett]

Thanks for showing us how to remove the clutch cover!!!

[@rmatvmc]

Anytime *dylan!*

[@JeffSpicoliable]

Should of used the stock clutch tool they provide instead of one probably nobody has

[@poobox3922]

Simple video, easy to follow, great edits. Thanks for the info!!

[@jworpet]

So you don't use scotch brite to scuff the sheave surfaces and you don't wash and scuff the belt? I thought that was standard practice.

[@rmatvmc]

*jworpet* that is good practice for sure. In this video our main focus was "how to replace" a utv drive belt. Thanks for sharing your tips with us.

[@Samisven]

"directional belt" XD sorry.

[@ErnestoGonzalez82]

Great Help!!! Thank you!! Helped us out Big Time!! Changing our busted belt @ PISMO BEACH....

[@newera3757]

Good job Dustin

[@rudygalindo973]

I have 2020 xp 1000 changed stock tires to 30x10 - 15 do I need a bigger clutch?

[@rmatvmc]

What type of riding do you do with your vehicle?

[@Gustavostefanelo]

Hello, I have a polaris RZR XP 1000 (2014), I'm having problems heating this CVT when I use it severely for more than half an hour, the belt gets too hot and I realized that it loses its useful life ... the problem also occurs when I walk in the range of 30km without stopping, in the range of 90 to 100km / h, it also heats up the belt a lot! Would you have any option to change the air more to cool the CVT? I've already researched the internet, but I didn't find any option for this problem ... I thought about adding a fan cooler, only stronger, to force the CVT air circulation

[@MegaDanoos]

Hey,i have bought a drive belt and i notice that i order the one for turbo model. Any chance it will for my non turbo model?( RZR xp 1000 2018)

[@dumolebob]

Polaris is screwing us with "change the oil every 25 hours and the belt every 1,000 miles"! Boo Polaris!

[@jaybee7653]

Use the stock tool I'm doing this tomorrow I need some input

[@cassidysteward2521]

Spelt sheave pronounced "shiv"

[@ErnestoGonzalez82]

How long before the Check Engine light goes off???

[@Its_steve_bro]

Ernesto Gonzalez the check engine light won’t go off as it’s a mechanical issue. If the machine jerks or jumps then is probably time for a new belt, this means it could be slipping.

[@jakefuller7597]

Usually 1/4 mile after you restart the engine and the issue is Corrected. Drive at 1/2 throttle and it will clear itself soon.

[@brandonwright6578]

Exactly like doing a alternator belt nice

[@hatband1]

Great video and very helpful. Does the machine need to be in neutral ?

[@rmatvmc]

No, put the machine in park when changing the belt.

[@michelleward8732]

How do you change it on a Highlifter 1000 XP Ranger ESP

[@rmatvmc]

We have a video showing this process on a Ranger here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nHTEnmBnmNOWaK8

[@RCBOSS1969]

Thank you!

[@tjsmith8220]

Whenever the tool presses apart the 2 sheeves and you install the belt. Does the 2 sheeves press back together by themselves?

[@TheChris1299100]

I just did this tonight and yeah, they retract a small amount on their own. Rotating the drum causes the sheeves to constrict, which is why I think they recommend rotating 5 or so time before reinstalling the cover. I'll find out more when I take my RzR out again soon...

[@VegasJPH]

I'd swap them square pucks out for round ones. You can already see the wear from them. Also, spring guard is on backwards. ;)

[@joehicks8786]

Some aftermarket trailing arms require the spring guards to be installed backwards.

[@bradleynichols9509]

I cant get my cover off. I've tried everything... I'm about to take the damn shock off at this point

[@rmatvmc]

What's holding up the clutch cover from coming off? What machine are you working on?

[@bradleynichols9509]

2017 XP1K...I ended up finally getting it off. I found a video online that showed me how to get it off. Thanks for the reply though

[@rmatvmc]

Very nice unit! Glad you got it all figured out.

[@rmatvmc]

Very nice unit! Glad you got it all figured out.

[@MinnesotaEric]

The front of the cover comes​ off first, then the rear.

[@aaronchovanetz5135]

Why didn’t you use the one that everyone has instead of the one that you have to buy from you

[@rmatvmc]

What are you referring to?

[@aaronchovanetz5135]

Rocky Mountain ATV MC the clutch tool

[@Blee48]

replace every 6 months? this is a joke right?!

[@KarasCyborg]

I've got 5000 miles on original belt and still running strong.

[@zachsteele6964]

@@KarasCyborg yeah I've never destroyed a belt even after how hard I drive my family's

[@ryandoe11]

I stole one of these off of a snowmobile trail.. have had it in my backyard for 3 years now, just keep it back there for the woods and land i have in the back, its a lot of fun!!!

[@mobgma]

You should have talked about belt tension and adjustment. Too loose or too tight etc etc.

[@rmatvmc]

*mobgma* There is no belt adjustment or tension adjustment on this set up. What machine do you have?
