To Adjust
•Open the clutch access window which is located on the right front of the clutch housing.
•Insert a 0.098 to 0.12 inch (2.5 to 3.0 mm) feeler gauge between the release thrust bearing and the release levers. Adjust the clearance by adjusting the length of the clutch rod.
-Lengthen the rod if the clearance is wider than the specification.
-Shorten the rod if the clearance is less than the specification.
•Depress the clutch pedal and check to make certain that the free travel at the tip of the pedal is 1.57 to 1.96 inches (40 to 50 mm).
•With the clutch pedal fully depressed, confirm that there is adequate gap between the clutch rod and the safety start switch.
IMPORTANT: When adjusting the clutch pedal free travel, always use measuring devices rather than visually estimating distances.

ADJUSTING WHEEL TREAD
When operating the tractor in the field, it is sometimes necessary to change the rear wheel tread to a narrower position to avoid plant rows, or to widen the tread to improve stability when operating on slopes. The rear wheel tread width can be adjusted to any of 6 different positions ranging from 46.4 to 58.6 inches by changing the position of the wheel disc relative to the rim mounting brackets and the rear axle.
