FBULWSEC Clutch Spreader Belt Removal Tool for Can-Am Maverick X3 / Defender (Black) — CNC Aluminum, Anodized

A precision CNC-machined, anodized aluminum clutch spreader that safely opens the driven clutch sheaves so you can remove the CVT belt on select Can-Am Maverick and Defender models. This FBULWSEC 708200720 X3 belt removing/clutch spreader is a purpose-built service tool for CVT belt removal and clutch maintenance. Engineered from CNC-cut aluminum and finished with anodizing, it withstands repeated use while resisting corrosion and wear. The tool simplifies a task that otherwise requires improvised methods, reducing time and protecting clutch components during belt replacement or inspection.

Which Can-Am models and part numbers is this tool compatible with?

The spreader fits a wide range of Can-Am UTVs and specific part references for easy cross-checking. It's shaped to work with 72" and 64" wheelbase machines and matches OEM part numbers for fast verification.

• Compatible models: 2017–2020 Maverick X3, X3 MAX, X3 MAX R, X3 RR.
• Also fits: 2018–2019 Maverick Trail 800R, Trail 1000R, Trail 1000 DPS; 2019–2021 Maverick Sport 1000R, Sport Max 1000, Sport Max 1000R.
• Cross-reference part numbers: 08200720, 529000088, 708200686.
• Designed for 64" and 72" wheelbase widths.

How do you use the clutch spreader to remove a CVT belt?

Installation is straightforward: position the tool on the driven clutch, secure it, then turn the included screw to separate the sheaves. When the secondary sheaves are spread, the belt can be lifted away without forcing or prying, which preserves sheave surfaces and pulley components.

• Place spreader over clutch hub and align with sheave edges.
• Hand-tighten tool body, insert and turn the screw to expand sheaves.
• Remove belt once clearance is sufficient; reverse steps to release tool.
• Use common hand tools only—no welding or destructive techniques required.

What materials and construction features ensure long service life?

The tool is machined from aluminum alloy with precision CNC processes, then anodized to add a hard, corrosion-resistant surface. Those manufacturing choices keep the spreader lightweight for handling while giving it the strength to withstand repeated torqueing during maintenance.

• CNC-machined aluminum alloy body for dimensional accuracy and strength.
• Anodized finish for wear and corrosion resistance.
• Durable screw mechanism designed for repeated expansion cycles.
• Compact footprint for use in tight engine bay spaces.

Will this tool protect my clutch and belt during service?

Yes—by providing controlled, even spreading of the driven sheaves the tool minimizes scoring or bending that can occur with improvised prying. It helps maintain clutch alignment and reduces the chance of damaging the belt or clutch faces during removal.

• Even force distribution prevents localized pressure points on sheaves.
• Removes need for metal hammers, screwdrivers, or risky levered removals.
• Reduces rework and parts replacement costs due to accidental damage.
• Ideal for routine belt changes and diagnostic clutch inspections.

Who is this for: This FBULWSEC clutch spreader is aimed at Do-It-Yourself UTV owners, independent mechanics, and service shops that work on Can-Am Maverick and Defender platforms and want a reliable, repeatable way to remove CVT belts. If you perform regular maintenance, replace belts, or inspect clutch components on the compatible model years listed above, this tool speeds the job while protecting drivetrain parts.
