Either or. One way or the other it's not releasing. If you can;t get enough out of your clutch, you may need a larger belt.

You may need to adjust the fingers that make the belt pucker around the pulleys when the clutch is actuated. Without these, the belt will continue to ride on the pulleys and drag.
