Ford 1715 clutch replacement manual

billkater · Mar 20, 2018

I am needing to replace the clutch in my Ford 1715 tractor. I have the service manual supplement pictured, but am needing Manual #40132030. It is the 13, 15, and 1720 Repair Manual. Anyone have a copy or know where to find one?

SERIAL. UK30757
MODEL. AK412T
UNIT. 7C13B
ENGINE. JB43-49210

Thanks

I have the I&T Shop Manual FO-46 that is a singel manual for all models 1120,1220,1320,1520,1720,1920 and 2120. The engine clutch section of the manual is about 3 pages long with some pictures. I can attach a copy of the 3 pages if you want.

That would be great. I was looking at manuals last night and that one kept coming up. Was wondering how much it would show me.

Thanks

Pretty generic on working on the clutch.

I have the full, 4" thick, manual at home (traveling right now) and will send the right pages when I get back, although you are probably already done with the job. If you have any hints or guidance I am about to replace my clutch in the next month or so.

I assume the 1715 clutch replacement would be very similar to my 1920.
It is a very straightforward job.
I had never done one before, but my helper had.
Took us almost 10 hours, first time.
Import clutch failed after 2-1/2 hours.
8 hours 2nd time.
DO NOT BUY AN IMPORT CLUTCH!
