Adjusting clutch on Case Int 485

9er · Mar 28, 2015

It's probably ( hopefully) a simple one, man job; but how can I adjust he clutch on the CI 485. It was/is my Pa-n-laws but he has progressed with Alzheimers and I now take care of his 28 acres. I noticed last week after days of bush hogging and plowing that it is WAY to high. It won't release til right at the top. Any help/advise links appreciated.

Here is the page from the manual:

It's an easy "fix" since all you are doing is adjusting the clutch pedal height. The posted diagram is the best help you can have. The actual clutch is self adjusting.

They came with a throw out bearing that was designed for the release fork to ride on the bearing all the time. I didn't like that, so I made a stop on the clutch arm and put a return spring on it.
