Clutch Run-In

Refer to Figure 5-8 (View - A):

1.Using a pencil or other marker, scribe a line across the exposed edges of the clutch plates and friction disks.

2.Tighten all 4 nuts uniformly until spring load is low enough that the clutch slips freely with PTO engaged.

Type C Clutch Run-In

Figure 5-8

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

4.Start tractor and engage PTO for 2-3 seconds to permit slippage of 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.

Refer to Figure 5-8 (View - B):

6.If no two marks on the friction disk and plate are still aligned, Turn all 4 nuts fully back.

7.Allow clutch to cool to ambient temperature before operating again. Clutch is now ready for use.

8.The clutch should be checked during the first hour of cutting and periodically each week. An additional set of scribe marks can be added to check for slippage.

Clutch Disassembly, Inspection & Assembly

If clutch run-in procedure above indicated that one or more of the friction disks did not slip, then the clutch must be disassembled to separate the friction disks.

IMPORTANT: Before proceeding, secure the clutch firmly in a vise or other clamping device to prevent injury.

4-Plate Disassembly

Step 1

If included, remove end half clamps.

Step 2

Tighten the four hex nuts uniformly until the clutch pack and hub are loose.

Step 3

Bend all four retaining lugs out on edge of clutch housing.

Step 4
