A new slip clutch or one that has been in storage over the winter may seize. Before operating the cutter, make sure it will slip by performing the following operation:

washer (9). The minimum spring height is 1.36". See Figure 13.

8.If a clutch continues to slip when the springs are compressed to 1.36", check friction discs (2) for excessive wear. Discs are 1/8" when new. Replace discs after 1/16" wear. Minimum disc thickness is 1/16".

1.Turn off tractor engine and remove key.

2.Remove driveline from tractor PTO.

3.Loosen six 12 mm cap screws (7) to remove all tension from compression spring (8).

4.Hold clutch hub (3) solid and turn shaft to make sure clutch slips.

5.If clutch does not slip freely, disassemble and clean the flange yoke (1), clutch hub (3), drive plate (5), and thrust plate faces (6).

6.Reassemble clutch.

7.Compress each of the six compression springs (8) by tightening the six cap screws (7) and lock nuts (10). The compression springs should be compressed to a height of 1-7/16", not including
