BCS735 clutch issue

[Actonite]

After extended use of my BCS735, I find that the clutch won't disengage. I don't have this problem when I use it for short periods of time. I've tried various amounts of play in the cable, with the same result.

Also, I want to verify that others find the clutch handle to require significant effort to squeeze. It's not as simple as brake handles on a bike or motorcycle. Let me know if this isn't so with you and what I can do to make it easier.

I don't find my clutch lever being that hard to pull, but I have experienced the clutch has a little drag on it after using it quite a bit. Maybe give Joel a call at (502) 484-3988 and see if he has any suggestion. Hours are 9:00 AM - 5:00 PM EST and if anyone in the US knows the fix, it would be him.

I guess I'll need to find a dealer to compare how a new one feels. What might cause the drag? I'll give Joel a call if I can't find answers here. It would be nice if he offered an email address, in addition to his phone number, as it can sometimes be easier to describe an issue with photographs and diagrams.
