H Houser, how did you determine that the slippage is in the hand clutch and not the foot clutch? When the foot clutch wears out, it slips more in the high gears than the low gears. It is common for a clutch to slip like crazy in 4th (high) and not slip in 1st. If your slippage is in the hand clutch, it can usually be adjusted so it will quit slipping. Often a slipping hand clutch will not have a noticeable snap when it is engaged. If you think it is the hand clutch, your shop manual should completely describe the adjustment. It is pretty simple to do. If it solves your problem, you are done. If it doesn't, I'd guess the foot clutch is worn out.

the foot clutch is a brand new pulling clutch. I believe the friction discs are worn enough not to hold the power.The engine is not quite stock

My comments are the same. Adjust the hand clutch. After proper adjustment, your problem should be solved.

So Texas Denny,

Is the "noticable snap" on the hand clutch normal? As I am new to tractors, I was wondering if that was normal on my 53 WD45.

Yes, the snap is necessary. The snap happens when the clutch goes over center. If there is no snap, the clutch needs adjustment.
