racers find this to be the optimal setting some require a lower engagement. Because of
the Cheetah’s design the engagement of the clutch can be altered very quickly and easily.
There are two features of the Cheetah clutch that allow you to make engagement
adjustments. The first is the cam weight design. The optional weight set (CSWCH1) which can be purchased from our store contains six cam weights
and each cam weight has a small hole in it. Weights can be added to each cam. The
second feature is six springs located next to the cam weights. These springs can be
adjusted to change the engagement speed.

3500 RPM Engagement Setting
By adding weights to the cams the engagement can be changed to 3500 rpm. The
weights for a 3500 rpm engagement consist of six (6) #10 screws and six locking nuts.
The amount of weight added is 10 grams per cam. Locking nuts must be used to
ensure the weights do not come off during use.
