Nothing runs like a deere said: (quoted from post at 08:42:56 01/01/10) I just recently bought a 1952 Farmall H for parts and it has the optional M&W hand clutch on it and I want to put it on my 45 H and was wonder the fundamentals of removing and installing an M&W hand clutch.
I will describe the process to the best of my ability, if you are unclear as to any of the steps, feel free to ask for more detailed instructions or I would be willing to describe the process to you over the phone as well.
1. unhook the brake linkage
2. remove the large cast iron cover
Now, if the fiber disc teeth are not stuck to the inside of the toothed drum, then you can slide everything out of the drum as a single unit. If the teeth are stuck, then go on to step #3
3. unscrew the large nut off the now exposed shaft
4. slide off the cam assembly
5. remove the outer pressure plate, try not to loose the 6 springs that are behind it
6. There are now alternating steel and fiber discs that need to be removed. 3 fiber and two steel. Be very careful to not damage them. New steel discs are not available new unless custom made, new fiber discs are available but expensive. I would imagine the discs are rust bonded to each other and to the inside of the drum. Be patient and use plenty of penetrating oil.
7. once the last fiber disc is removed, you can remove the inner pressure plate and shaft together.
8. remove the seal retainer, 3 screws hold it on.
9. remove coil snap ring off end of hollow shaft and then the drum will slide off.
Now is the difficult part, the part remaining in the tractor has to be pulled out, BUT before that can be done, you will have to go into the rear end, either remove the top cover or go in through the PTO hole. The left axle has to be pulled out of the bull gear and the bull gear slid out of the notch in the pinion gear housing where the bull gear engages the pinion gear. Once this is done, then you can remove the 6 bolts holding the pinion gear housing in, thread two of the bolts into the two threaded holes provided and screw them in, thus pulling out the pinion gear and it's housing.
To install just reverse my instructions.
I can supply you with a copy of an owners/installation manual too if you would like.
