Thank you, There's more to do, it's not a mill till the first slab is cut.
Update:
I've wanted to add a Centrifugal Clutch, like and Automatic Transmission. When the engine is idling nothing moves in line from the engine. When the engine are raised, at 1800rpm the blade will turn on the band wheels.
Problem I had is: the engine output shaft was 1 1/8" diameter, the Clutch bore is 1" [ I bought a 1" because the price of a 1 1/8" bore is a great enough to avoid.
I ran the engine, with sandpaper, files and Micrometer, I removed 75 thousands of an inch from the shaft, this meant milling a key with a step to fit the smaller key way on the shaft.
one picture shows the key with the milled step and a hole to aid removing if needed, the other shows the key driven in. A bolt with a large washer will hold the clutch from moving off the shaft.

My Grizzly runs on one of those centrifugal clutches. I swamped it a few years back and haven't gotten around to repacking it with grease, it probably needs more work now because it's sat for a few years.
When water gets in there the clutch locks up and it's like it stays in first gear. The the engine overheats and actually boils the gas in the tank right above it.

Greetings, When the clutch engages it acts as a pulley, if the clutch is heating it is slipping. That can be from the engine running at too low RPMs or a clutch not large enough for the engine.
Grizzly, what is that, an ATV of some kind?
