13. If replacing dishpan (#4), nut (#7) on gearbox output 

shaft should be torqued to 450 ft-lbs. minimum and 
cotter pin (#8) installed with both legs bent opposite 
directions around the nut. 

Slip-Clutch Protected Drivelines

The drivetrain is protected from shock loads with a two 
plate slip-clutch. The slip-clutch must be capable of 
slippage during operation. Always do a “clutch run-in” 
operation at the beginning of each season and after long 
periods of inactivity to remove any oxidation that may 
have accumulated on the friction surfaces. Repeat 
“clutch run-in” instructions when moisture and/or 
condensation seizes the inner friction plates.

WARNING

To avoid serious injury or death:  
Always shut tractor down using “Tractor Shutdown 

Procedure” provided in this manual before dismounting 

tractor.

Clutch Run-In

Refer to Refer to Figure 5-2:

Slip-Clutch

Figure 5-2

1.

Using a pencil or other marker, scribe a line across the 
exposed edges of the clutch plates and friction

 discs.

2. Carefully loosen each of the 8 spring retainer nuts by 

exactly 2 revolutions. It will be necessary to hold hex 
end of retainer bolt in order to count the exact 
number of revolutions.

3. Start tractor and engage power take-off drive for 2-3 

seconds to permit slippage of the clutch surfaces. 
Disengage power take-off, then re-engage a second 
time for 2-3 seconds. Disengage power take-off, shut 
off tractor, and remove key. Wait for all components to 
stop before dismounting from tractor.

4. Inspect clutch and ensure that the scribed markings 

made on the clutch plates have changed position. 
Slippage has not occurred if any two marks on the 
friction disc and plate are still aligned. A clutch that 
has not slipped must be disassembled to separate 
the friction disc plates. See 

“Clutch Assembly and 

Disassembly” 

on page 26.

5. Tighten each of the 8 spring retainer nuts on the 

clutch housing exactly 2 revolutions to restore the 
clutch to the original setting pressure.

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. 
See Figure 5-4 on page 26 to adjust spring length.
