Clutch doesn't have rubber boots?(cam slippers/contact rubber tips) Is it the clutch or driven making noise? Does the belt have any wear on the sides,strings or nylon exposed?

If there is wear on the sides of a belt usually indicates an alignment issue or belt is installed backwards.Verify belt has the flatter side against the motor. Is the clutch or driven pulleys rubbing the plate/engine mount?Check for wear marks- also check the chain @ the driven sprocket too.

To tighten belt-(properly adjusted belt is snug to loose on brass bushing-NOT tight)Loosen engine and jackshaft plate bolts- move engine towards front and jackshaft/driven plate towards the rear for belt adjustment-.For chain adjustment loosen jackshaft bolts and move it forward till chain is tight.Alignment for belt on clutch and driven pulleys-Using your eyes, site the pulleys closest to the engine,they have to be perfectly aligned-loosening the engine & jackshaft/driven plate bolts and align the pulleys.The engine or jackshaft plate can get cock-eyed from tightening the chain or belt or bolts can come loose.
