Default My own drive clutch removal thread

So far, so good, but I skipped Step 1, at least according to the threads I've read.

I pulled the belt up to the edge of the driven clutch and began to rotate it, but getting more than half of it to ride up to get it off seemed to put a LOT of pressure on the drive clutch (and I assume, the crank). That made me nervous and the air compressor was buzzing away in the corner so I decided to see if I could get the clutch bolt out.

After two bursts of the impact wrench the bolt was free. I'm hoping that bodes well for the clutch itself.

I inserted the puller by hand. It stops with about 3/4" of thread exposed. Normal? Will it need impact or just pressure?

It LOOKS like the belts could stay on until the clutch comes off. No?

Sorry for the newb questions. I realize this all sounds timid, but I'm messing with an otherwise great-running cart and I don't want to do any damage.
