proclimb 800

[catgod]

buddy bought a new 800, finally seen it out on the hill today and that thing hauls !
was out with turbo m8, only runnin 5 pounds of boost but still, it was on its ass all day long
only down side is the proclimbs gone through 2 belts in the first 150 miles

Maybe a clutch alignment issue? Did you wash the belts and break them in some?

 

[flying frenchman]

Did your buddy install a screen on the side panel on the clutch side? He should look into that. To me that hole in the side cover sucks in powder snow, just like when I added side vents on my mod sled.

 

[catgod]

He ordered the vented panel kit, should be here in about a week or so he said. Hed pull a hill, an his clutch would get too hot to touch. 2011 poo pro pulled the same hill and the clutch was still cool , although the cat outclimbed it considerably

 

[catgod]

Oh, and cat actually doesnt have any belts available. So he found one that kinda fits, and just uses the crap on to ride back down the mountain at the end of the day :/

Any luck with the belt issue? Just talking to my friend with HCR proclimb 800...he's on belt 3 @ around 150miles. He said his clutches are super hot...he's stripped out all his foam but I don't think has a vent kit on yet. Has anyone had to adjust alignment? Told him i would see if there was anything on here. Thx

how can it be an alignment issue when the motor and secondary are bolted together.

 

[HagmanMod1]

if its making heat like that there either not aligned or belt slippage is a problem maby needs to be geared down

 

[snopro]

If its out climbing the Poo pretty bad then its probably not bad calibration. Either there is snow getting on the belt or they are poor quality belts.

Make sure he washes the belts and breaks them in and if you can clean the clutches after a belt goes. The clutch being hot is because the belt is slipping good luck tho

 

[takethebounce]

Changing a belt on that thing looks like a nightmare! I checked it out last week, crazy! One fella I spoke with runs a rental fleet with new ProClimbs, he said he hated changing a belt in the shop, he would hate to see someone change one on the mountain.

 

[maxwell]

so how do you align one of these? does the torque link not permanently keep them consistently aligned?

 

[suzuki_ryder]

I changed my belt on my proclimb easier than I could on my M series. Only reason I had to change my belt is because I completely forgot to make the first adjustment after break in so it began to fray (140 miles later)
I think my belt deflection was at 1 foot lmao

What does washing the belt do? what do you wash it with? is that just for new belts?

 

[POWDERSLUT]

yes,and sunlight soap then let dry

does it have to be sunlight? Why not other soap like Dawn?

 

[POWDERSLUT]

never tried dawn,always been told and used sunlight,,,

 

[Slamnek]

you can use any dish soap to wash the belt. It removes the oily film from the new belt.

225 miles on 800 proclimb and no problems whatsoever. Checked clutches and seem pretty cool.

A good PDI will always produce good results. Them guys at T&T are thorough.
