I have a neighbour with a 154 Lo-boy that I?m trying to help out and it is not cooperating. So a few weeks ago the tractor was working fine and then started to become harder and harder to get the clutch to release. We removed the cover over the mid section and attempted to adjust the clutch and found two things. The brake pucks were worn completely out and the clutch finger pivots seemed to be taking most of the travel of the thrust bearing before releasing the clutch.
After ordering a clutch kit, new brake pucks, and surfacing the rear flywheel we put it back together and despite adjusting all the free play out the clutch absolutely will not even slip (the hub of the disc is facing forward) and applying the clutch brakes does nothing but burn them up and lug the engine down. Any suggestions on where to go from here?
Many thanks, Sam
