Max II Engine Replacement

Place the motor back in the Max and slide the belt back on. Then position the motor over the mounts and insert the four bolts and washers. Leave them loose for now so that you can adjust the position of the motor.



Position the motor so that the belt runs straight and true. Then slide the motor towards the back of the Max to get the belt tight.



Place the exhaust gaskets between the exhaust and the engine and bolt the exhaust back into place.



Tighten the motor mount bolts while keeping tension on the belt. Then slide the stop on the left side of the frame towards the rear until it touches the motor mount. (See the photo below) This helps to keep the belt from pulling that side of the motor forward over time.



If you missed it earlier, reconnect the ground strap to the motor.



Reconnect the fuel line, starter solenoid wire, and wiring harness plug. Then reconnect the throttle and choke cables.



Happy 6x6ing!
