Do you have to change the clutch in order to replace the belt in a DC14?

No. But I replaced belt and 2 weeks later the clutch froze up. So I've now done both. YouTube it

No, but it certainly is the easiest way for a non technical person. Many times, the clutch is worn as well, so replacing the clutch assembly will take care both possible issues at once.

No, you do not have to change the clutch in order to replace the belt in a DC 14. You can carefully disassemble the clutch housing and replace the belts, it is real difficult, and once I opened the housing, discovered that the clutch assembly was worn, so I ended up having replace it.

I'm pretty sure you do. That's what my husband told me and why I ordered this part. He replaced it and it works fine.

No. But the clutch assembly has to be taken completely apart. It's very difficult to reassemble the clutch with the new belts. I chose to buy the new clutch /new belts and replace the whole thing. It worked and fit perfectly. Good luck.

Nope. My old one was fine. I believe the shaft seal is deeper inside the transfer case. After installing, be sure to put the column shifter in N before starting engine and pushing the 4WD selector buttons.

No, my DR560 does not have a clutch. The bit will keep turning until the motor stalls or you release the trigger.

Yes, you change speed by changing which groove on the pulleys that the belt runs in.

not perfectly. Had to use the old belt. That could have been my fault. Everything else is working fine.

you won't go until you engage the belt with the handle be a bit gentle putting it in the gear you want. you don't have to bull and jam, the transmission does not have synchromesh gears it appears to have straight cut gears be nice. I got mine around June and probably have at least 100 hours on it.

No. Buy the Haynes Guide or look on the CRV forums. It's a 2 hour job. You will have to remove the Serp. Belt, so I recommend having two people make the repair.

Mine did. But it is a squeeze and you can't put much in the rest of the clutch.

Hi-It is not belt driven from what i can tell- the pedals are attached directly to the flywheel. When i assembled the bike and looked at the flywheel it appears to be electronically monitored, I didnt see any belts

Yes. The whole operation including the belt should take less than 5 minutes. Remove three or four sheet metal screws and pop the new parts and close it back up. Restored the Oreck to like-new.

Yes I was able to change gears. The skewer included replaces the stock one when in the trainer. The gearing will function just as if you were riding your bike on the ground.

No! the belt and rod assembly are a separate order. I used my original belt and "rod" assembly and it worked fine!

Did you ever get an answer to your question? Five years is a long time to wait, but last week I replaced the belt on my Hitachi P12RA Planer/Jointer. Let me know if you want details.

I didn't use the "tool" but I had to wrestle with it a bit to get the replacement in. My belt was in good shape so I didn't replace it. About a 20-30 minute job. Pay attention to the positions of the pieces as they come apart or it won't fit.

I would think so. I believe the only thing they changed on the 14 is the suspension and seat.

Item came with beater bar and the bearings were inside. I ordered for a DC14 so can't say if it will fit your model.

I forgot one important detail....if you look at the left hand cable you'll see a piece of 4" long black plastic under that is the plate where you can adjust your clutch cable...good luck...easy fix.
