I have my 202 in the Massey dealer shop for 3 things, clutch disks replacement, transmission/bell housing seals replacement and a brake job.
When I went to pick it up, there was a big puddle of transmission fluid coming out from the bell housing. the two seals most likely were not properly installed, so there we go tractor split again.
The primary and PTO disks were replaced. I noticed the clutch pedal is very hard to push comparing to what it was before, but this could be also because the pedal has about 1-1/2” of free travel instead of the 3/4” outlined by the manual. Also the mechanic said that he normally adjusts the release levers to 060”. I did not question this adjustment at the time but I thought it was supposed to be 090” new disks, and sure thing I checked the manual and 090” is what it supposed to be.
My question is, would the adjustment of the clutch pedal and the release levers make a significant change to how hard the required clutch pedal pressure be? If it is, I am not overly concerned because I can to the adjustments myself. If not, then there must be something wrong with the clutch installation.
By the way the two stage clutch operation works, hard but it works.
My main concern, however, is the seals leak. I am not aware of any possibilities, except improper installation.
Also I think I am being overcharged, $2200 labor for clutch disks replacement (no loader), 2 seals replacement and a brake job. I would appreciate if anybody would give me an opinion on what a dealer set labor price for these three jobs (North Carolina).
