K, Im having a tuff time with my drive roller. I just want to make sure that on your guys setups, do you have to diengage the engine every time you come to a stop? Im racking my brain on how i can use the clutch somehow but its not setup the same as the small engines with the 4 bolts around the clutch like in the friction drive kits being sold.
Deacon, I know you have explained this before but i just want to make sure im clear before i do any welding. On My saw the clutch is screwed on directly to the shaft which is about 5/16 not 3/8. There is no nut locking it in, it locks itself in by being reversed thread. The Peg i have is 3/8 and if i take the clutch out and slide it over the shaft there is play so im afraid that when i weld it, it might end up off center and vibrate.
Shoes, I saw your setup up with the pulley system. When you engage the drive, is there a spring to put the roller pressure against the tire.
I apologize for so many questions, its just been more work then i expected being the first one. I would love to figure out how to be able to use a clutch because on my commute there are alot of lights.
Thanks Guys, ill be working on it today so i will post any changes.
