I have had two belts go on me the last one only lasted about an hour. I believe this may be do to me not breaking it in properly, first one my clutch broke. on both belt failures the cord was wrapped up in both clutches to the point they had to remove both the primary and secondary to remove belt cords.

How are you guys changing your belts out on the trails?, i had a spare gates belt the second time but could not get the cords out of secondary clutch, also the sheeves were all marked up so i didn’t want to install the new gates belt.when i use the clutch tool to open up secondary it snaps shut and seems impossible to accomplish without a second set of hands.

I will be pulling both clutches and cleaning them, I will be doing the recommended break in from hunter works so hopefully i won’t be changing a belt for a long time. It just seems about impossible to me to change a belt out on the trail.
