Clutch adjustment:
•
The friction clutch system is adjusted at the factory prior to shipment.
•
Under normal conditions it should perform without any adjustment for well over 1000 working
hours.
•
If it is noted that the clutch is slipping with minimal loads, even though the green power cord is
fully pulled, so the clutch arm rests against the stop, then a clutch adjustment may be
necessary.
