PTO Clutch Adjustment for Ford Tractor 3600 Diesel, 3 cyl...

Good Morning, I am having an issue with PTO on this tractor.

When you push clutch the PTO will not work - it just grinds - won't engage.

Then you have to shut tractor off - push PTO level to engage and it runs steady. The PTO will not shut off using the clutch.

Would you be able to tell me if there is an adjustment for PTO clutch to correct this?
 

There are two holes on the clutch arm where the linkage connects at the side of the transmission. It its in the wrong hole, it will do exactly what your describing. If its in the other hole for a higher pedal, it will work correctly. Half way down for clutch, all the way down for pto disconnect. Please check that first.
 
If it WAS working correctly, and now it doesn't, you most likely have broken linkage parts in your pressure plate (quite common on high-hour units). You'll need to split the tractor and repair/replace pressure plate.
 
Bill,
Somewhere in the thousand series production they did away with that double clevis on the clutch rod. Not sure when - I doubt it lasted past 69 or so.
I know it was long gone by the time the 26/3600s came out.
 
I'm not saying it didn't exist... but I've never seen anything other than the prior models that had that 2 hole clevis. Everything of Basildon origin I've ever seen had a one hole clevis.

Darned Fords.
Just when you think you have them figured out they throw you a curve ball.

There you go... I've seen a lot of them and that's the first clutch linkage I've seen like that.

Not related to the topic of this thread, but those numbers are interesting, so I thought I would comment on them. 6D13C with a B042677 serial number would be an April 13, 1966 tractor from the Basildon plant, but what the heck is E66?

What tractor model is that Ultradog? Is that the trans that came on the 4400?

It also looks like the 4 in the serial number was overstruck on top of a 7.

Maybe the tractor was stolen at some point in its history and the numbers were altered to avoid identification? Or maybe it was a replacement trans and the dealer tech who did the replacing wasn't paying attention when he stamped it? Or maybe the workers at the Basildon plant hadn't gotten the hang of properly stamping the numbers that early in the production run?
 
This was that 3000 I went to TX to get last winter-
had that new crate 192 D that I put in the 4400.
I knew it was early but never looked up the SN.
Has the light front bolster, high tin, Brit fenders,
no diff lock, no hand brake.
Also has lift arms with convertible cat 1-2 balls,
and covered draft spring and adjustable (not hand
crank) lift link on the left side.
I did look at that 4/7 stamping when I took the pic
and figured it was done at the factory.
I could get the #s from the left side tonight if you
like.
 
Ultradog - Thanks. If you could get the numbers from the other side that would be great. Every little bit to add to my references helps.
