Drivelines With Slip Clutches

!CAUTION!

Engage parking brake, disengage PTO, shut off tractor, and remove key before working on or around the driveline and/or slip clutch.

!CAUTION!

Slip clutches that have been in use or have been slipped for only two or three seconds during run-in may be too hot to touch. Allow a hot clutch to cool before working on it.

Cutter drive components are protected from shock loads by a friction slip clutch. The clutch must be capable of slippage during operation to protect the gearbox, driveline and other drive train parts.

Friction clutches should be “run-in” prior to initial operation and after long periods of inactivity to remove any oxidation that may have accumulated on the friction surfaces. Repeat “run-in” instructions at the beginning of

each season and when moisture and/or condensation seizes the inner friction plates.

Refer to Figure 5-2 to determine which friction clutch your cutter has. Follow “run-in” instructions on the following pages for your specific clutch type.

2.Carefully loosen each of the 8 spring retainer nuts by exactly 2 revolutions. It will be necessary to hold hex end of retainer bolt in order to count the exact number of revolutions.

3.Make sure the area is clear of all bystanders and machine is safe to operate.

4.Start tractor and engage PTO drive for 2-3 seconds to permit slippage of the clutch surfaces. Disengage PTO, then re-engage a second time for 2-3 seconds. Disengage PTO, shut off tractor and remove key.

Wait for all components to stop before dismounting from tractor.

5.Inspect clutch and ensure that the scribed markings made on the clutch plates have changed position. Slippage has not occurred if any two marks on the friction disk and plate are still aligned. A clutch that has not slipped must be disassembled to separate the friction disk plates. See “Clutch Disassembly, Inspection & Assembly” below.
