Section 4: Maintenance & Lubrication

Land Pride

IMPORTANT: The clutch must be disassembled into separate friction discs if one or more friction disc did not slip during clutch run-in operation. See Clutch Disassembly on page 30.

5.Tighten each spring retainer nut on the clutch housing exactly 2 revolutions to restore clutch to original setting pressure. See Clutch Assembly on page 30 for exact spring length.

6.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

Refer to Figure 4-4:

Disassembly of the clutch is simply a matter of removing the spring retainer nuts (#1), springs (#2) and bolts (#3) from the assembly. Each friction disc (#4) must then be separated from the metal surface adjacent to it.

Clutch Inspection

Inspect all parts for excessive wear and condition. Clean all parts that do not require replacement.The original friction disc thickness is 1/8" (3.2 mm) and should be replaced if thickness falls below 3/64" (1.1 mm). If clutches have been slipped to the point of “smoking”, the friction discs may be damaged and should be replaced. Heat build-up may also affect yoke joints.

Clutch Assembly

Refer to Figure 4-4:

Install new friction discs if needed and reassemble all components in proper order. Reassemble each friction disc (#4) next to the metal plate it was separated from. Install bolts (#3) through the end plates and intermediate plates as shown. Place springs (#2) over the bolts and secure with nuts (#1).

Refer to Figure 4-5:

Progressively tighten each spring retainer bolt until correct spring height “A” is reached. See Tables below Figure 4-5.
