My brother-in-law is now totally blind but it doesn't stop him restoring old machinery. He's currently working on a JD R. He's asked if I can try to find any instructions for replacement and adjustment of the clutch.
We are in south western Australia and the dealers haven't been able to help. He has access to a parts manual but not a service manual.
He asked also about operating instructions for the starting engine but I've found a note from Joel Williams dated Aug 2001 that seems helpful in that area.
I'm not a tractor person but I get to help from time to time. Thanks

Vince:

I'm not an "R" person, but I'll help if I can.

As the other fellow said, an I&T book can be fairly helpful. Not sure how difficult they are to obtain in Australia. Deere shows a Service Manual for the "R" listed as SM2005. I'm not sure how thorough that one might be. If you're interested in it, you can get pricing and delivery information by calling Deere at 800-522-7448.

Are you looking to get the clutch apart, then re-assembled? Or is it apart and you need to get it back together ? Are you working on the friction plate side only, or are you asking about the operating sleeve, dogs, and toggles behind the pulley ?

Going together is pretty straight forward, although I believe on an "R" (and the 80/820/830)the clutch driver must be installed with the "V" marks of the driver and crankshaft aligned so as to prevent excessive vibration. 70/720/730 diesels used a crankshaft mounted counter weight, so the driver did not require particular orientation. Finally, getting the bolt tight on the end of the crank is pretty important, too.

Post back with what you specifically need, and someone here will be more than happy and able to help.

The I+T manuals will help. Your dealer shoud be able to get them.
