Is there a way to adjust the dual clutch w/o splitting the tractor?! I have a front loader on it and I do not see any opening which would allow to adjust the clearance between the transmission and the PTO clutch. I understand that there are three bolts which can be adjusted so that there is no to large axial distance (or travel) after the transmission clutch is disengaged and before the PTO clutch disengages. The only way I can get the PTO to disengage is to take the pedal free play to less than the spec (barely .5 "). I am concern that the through out bearing may be touching the fingers of the pressure plate with such small pedal free play.
My neighbor has the same tractor and in his tractor the pedal free play is very large, around 1.5-1.75 inch, and his PTO still disengages at the end of the clutch pedal travel.
BTW, as the transmission clutch disc wears out, does the distance between these three boots to the member of the PTO clutch increase? I read somewhere that the distance should be only 1.1-1.2 mm.
Otherwise the both clutches operate nice, no slipping, no grinding.
I appreciate the answers and any related discussion.
