Remove the clutch cover by unscrewing the retaining screws, then check the belt's wear and tension. If the belt is worn, replace it; otherwise, adjust the belt by loosening the clutch mounting bolts and repositioning the clutch for proper tension. Finally, reattach the clutch cover and ensure everything is secure before testing the vehicle.
