4-wheeler clutch help

I have a 2013 arctic cat 500 , My clutch? went out pulling a drag in my dove field. There is a wet clutch that drives the centrifugal clutch.
The centrifugal clutch has some metal rollers in there and a few plastic spacers. well all the plastic melted and of coarse the centrifugal clutch cant operate properly slide in and out. I know all the rollers and the plastic spacers need replaced for sure. But how do i determine if the Wet clutch is bad? . The wet clutch has like a drum over it with a splined shaft that the centrifugal clutch slides on to. The wet clutch opens up turns the drum hence turns the centrifugal clutch. Inside the drum there are some minor groves but very minor nothing that would insinuate there was a problem. But being i have never taken one apart until now i don't know. I ask for yalls help and advice because y'all have 4 wheelers on your farms and im sure you have worked on them. arctic cat parts has a great diagram but i dont know how to put it on here so you can see . Thanks for any help

The centrifugal clutch is the wet clutch, it behind the crankcase cover, sounds like you removed this? Centrifugal clutches go bad but usually it is from real hard work or mostly abuse. The belt and primary clutch are usually what fails first. What you probably did was slip the belt enough to create excessive heat which melted the plastic rollers in the primary clutch, easy fix right... If this is as far as you need to go, get a clutch repair kit, consider upgrading the clutch and belt.

The way the centrifugal clutch shoes designed, they will make minor grooves in the drum. The friction pads, should look uniform in material thickness, and should not show irregular wear. The only ones I have seen which were bad had totally worn out the friction pads . They were also obviously blackened and burned from slippage.

Thats exactly why i ask that question on here. I knew someone would have the correct answer. Thank you 4play. I use it to pull a drag in the
dove field which is about 4 acres and all the pulling it does at home. I always use low gear but my wife seems to never remember to do that.
Which i have never spent any money on this unit till now and i bought it new so i cant complain a bit. Other than oil changes and a air
filter and gas. I have never had to replace the battery (knock on wood) yet and its 5 years old. Ill get my parts ordered tonight .Thanks
again for the advice.

Your Arctic Cat has a automatic clutch and variable speed drive, it also has a 2 speed trans.
If you burnt the centrifugal clutch out it sounds like you were operating at a low throttle rpm which allows the clutch to slip, this in turn causes the clutch to over heat.
Where you operating in high range or low?
I've pulled a chain drag and 10 ft culitpacker with my Honda 450 Foreman, but I keep it in a lower gear with plenty of rpm's to lock up the centrifugal clutch.
Any time your pulling with a 4 wheeler or UTV it should be operating a half throttle min or more.
Don't have to be a full throttle but idling around will overheat the clutch.

I always have it in Low if i have anything hooked up to it. My chain drag i have a 8 foot piece of telephone pole attached to the end and
its about 8 to 10 inched round. Helps break up clods also as i pull it. I was probably half throttle or less in low gear when this
happened. When i took it apart i saw the damaged part. But when i looked at a diagram and saw there was more to the clutch and i wasn't
sure if all of it was messed up. I didnt want to fix half of it if there was more to the clutch that might have been messed up. And the
diagram didnt leed me to think it was a wet clutch. Well soon as i tapped the cover and broke the seal i found out right quick it was wet.
dumped the oil right on to my garage floor. Once i was there i just didn't know how to determine if that wet clutch which 4play told me it
was a centrifugal clutch was bad. The small groves in the drum with the splined shaft was normal.After this was explained to me i
understand it a little better now. So all i have to replace is what you could visually see. 4play saved me a lot of money explaining it
because i would have just replaced it all if i hadn't ask the question on here.
