The hand clutch on my B felt a bit loose so I tried to tighten her up a bit. The tractor has been used in row crop cultivation regularly this summer without incident. However, when I tightened eact slotted nut a little the clutch seemed to get worse-- no snap or positive engagement. I loosened each and repeated with similar issues. Finally I took off the adjusting disk and found the first facing had a large break in it. Would this alone keep me from getting a good tight clutch? Also could someone please explain how to check approximate endplay without fancy tools. I understand too much endplay hinders clutch engagement? And not this probably makes much difference but it seems like I have quite some gap between the clutch drum and housing. Thanks,
Pete
