Hi,

Recently bought a new clutch kit for my tractor. What I need to know is what tension the bolts that hold the cover to the pressure plate are tensioned to. Also there are two holes for the split pin >>>> What does it fit into or does it not matter.

Thanx

Bazz

The split pin you mention must be a cotter Key. The answer to that is someone must have drilled a second hole in the bolt because the original one was useless once the nut was tightened up more than the key would still effect. If a 730 adjusts like the A or B model, you should adjust all 3 an even amount with motor off and clutch engaged. Put enough tension on the nut to get a snap upon disengaging the clutch lever. Too little tension will allow slippage, too tight will be hard to engage and disengage plus will tear up some parts.

Bazz, are you talking about the engine, PTO or pony clutch?
~It kind of sounds like you are referring to the pony clutch but let us know so we can help you.
~Also what split pin are you referencing.

Thanx for your interest in my query. Fact is I have not seen the tractor but posted the help query for a mate. I am sure that he meant the main clutch that gives the tractor forward motion. I was puzzled by the way he explained things to me but all he wants to know is what tension are the three bolts pulled down to on the clutch. As for the split pin thingy I don't know what he meant but I think he said there were two holes drilled through the bolts and the split pin goes through to prevent the castellated nut from coming undone.

If this seems double dutch to you I will get off my arse and go to have a look at the tractor for him and then I may have a clearer picture of what he is talking about. Us Aussies do tend to mix things up a lot.

Cheers

Bazz
