A 2019 cart probably does not have a worn out clutch which Yamaha calls a sheave. If you have not replaced the belt it would be my first step and is a VERY easy to do 10 minute job but you will get dirty from your elbows down to your hands. If the belt is good AND clean as described above, replacing the clutch is an uncomplicated process. Basically four steps which does not involve jacking up the cart. All work is completed with the seat lifted off.

1. Remove the belt.
2. Remove the retaining bolt and washer then pull off the old clutch.
3. Slide on the new clutch then replace the washer and bolt then torque to 21-24 lb-ft.
4. Replace the belt.

I have the service manual for a 2020 but the procedure should be identical.
