Slip Clutch Maintenance

Slip clutches should be “run-in” prior to initial operation and after long periods of inactivity. To prevent driveline and gearbox damage, repeat “Run-In” instructions at the beginning of each season and when moisture and/or condensation seizes the inner friction disks.

Your Powered Rake will have one of two types of slip clutches. One is adjustable with hex socket bolts and the other is adjustable with hex head bolts. Refer to Figure 4-1 and Figure 4-2 to determine which slip clutch your Powered Rake has. Follow run-in and assembly instructions for your particular slip below.

Slip Clutch with Hex Socket Bolts

If your clutch has enclosed friction disks and is tensioned with hex socket bolts as shown in Figure 4-1, follow clutch run-in and assembly instructions below.

If your clutch has exposed friction disks and is tensioned with hex head bolts as shown in Figure 4-2, skip to “Slip Clutch with Hex Head Bolts” on page 17.
