It is common knowledge that a belt drive primary provides advantages & service that a standard chain drive primary cannot. For dependable, high-performance, long lasting service nothing beats a modern Primo® primary Belt Drive! A long standing tradition of ”Quality & Performance” has made Primo® Belt Drive systems the most popular in the world! That same quality & performance is now available in the Brute III EXTREMETM belt drive for Evolution Big-Twin and Twin Cam motorcycles (fully enclosed primary drive). The wet clutch nightmare is over, no more leaky primary, no more draining the primary for inspection or maintenance. Carefully read & follow these instructions for a quick, convenient installation. If you have questions call (562) 907-2600.

IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE....

When performing any motorcycle work such as installing a belt drive, secure the motorcycle in an upright position with convenient access to the primary drive. If you are working with the motorcycle on a lift make sure it is securely fastened to prevent it from falling.

Remove the battery prior to starting this installation.

Check pulley alignment with a straight-edge

Install front pulley (together with

front inside guide plate) & rear 4 pulleys without the belt & check alignment as shown(straight

edge flush with rear of ring-gear lines-up with outer edge of front pulley) remove pulleys and proceed with installation. If alignment isn’t satisfactory see photo 8. The provided .100” washer can be used to space the front pulley outward as needed.

Shims are manufactured from high quality steel, precision ground for parallel & flat surfaces to ensure perfect pulley alignment. Correct pulley alignment & correct belt tracking are a must for long belt life. These shims make pulley alignment easy. Shims are available in .020", .030", .050", .075" &

.100” thick dimensions, or sets of "one-of-each.”
