ADJUSTMENT OF THE CLUTCH LINKAGE
Make sure the engine is OFF and remove the negative battery cable to ensure the unit can not accidently be started.
Remove the spring from the throwout arm. (See PIC# 1) An accurate measure of the arm tension CAN NOT be
made with the spring attached.
With the clutch in the engaged position adjust the nut (See PIC# 2) against the "rocker ball" until a 1/8" gap be-
tween the nut and rocker ball is visible (
See PIC# 3).
If available, use the special 1/8" gauge tool to slip between the nut and rocker ball. With the proper adjustment the
gauge should slide between the nut and rocker ball with a slight amount of pressure. (See PIC# 4)
Move the adjustment nut to create the 1/8" gap.
Re-install the return spring.
Place the handle in the disengaged position. Check to make sure that the PTO output shaft turns freely.

Rotating Shafts, pulleys, and moving belts can cause severe injury or can be fatal. The
engine and driven unit MUST be completely stopped before any adjustments or work is at-
temped to the engine, driven unit, or the PTO clutch itself.
The clutch linkage should be checked after the first 15 hours of operation and every 40 hours there after. An im
-
properly adjusted clutch can result in premature wear to the clutch disc, flywheel and the throwout bearing and
will
void the warranty on the clutch and PTO.
