I have about 350 hours on my tractor and this season I noticed the clutch does not engage as gradual as before. Its grabbing kind of hard. Any suggestions? I'm going to be changing out all the fluids hopefully this weekend. I adjusted the pedal last year.

Thanks

I'd check all the linkages, pivot point and springs and adjust it again per factory spec. Do you have any issues clutching and change gear? does it grind? when does it grab? I think there might be a possibility of release bearing distance to the pressure plate finger is more than factory spec needing you to clutch all the way and yet the clutch disk can't be fully released. If that is the case clutch need to be adjusted to engage quicker (shorter gap between pressure plate fingers and the throwout bearing).
