Well we can try to get you going:) You should be able to feel the need to press a bit harder on the clutch to disengage the pto clutch, if not able to notice it don't worry. With the pto in gear[ not ground speed] turning a speed of some rate, push the clutch ALL the way down[ pto stops] and put the tractor in a gear[ first/low range is good], when the clutch is released slowly, the pto shaft should begin to turn, before the tractor starts to move[ 2 stage clutch]. Better to have someone watch the pto when doing this so you don't generate paper work leaning back over the seat to watch. To adjust the cltch remove the access cover in front of shift levers[ or in line with the clutch/flywheel area. There are three adjustments bolts that give the clearance between the operating lever and the throwout bearing contact. I have mine set at 75 thou clearance, although book [s] say different, i went with "big deans" advice, and suggest you make contact with him if in doubt or to check on my advice. He has a good cd available, thats covers a lot of tractors, and touches on ours also, worth the pennies to obtain. Be sure to have the fuel stop lever in the STOP position before SLOWLY turning over the engine to bring the adjusting bolts up into position. Try not use the starter to roll it,as it tends to overshoot where you want it, a pry bar or likewise device works. The actual pedal is adjutable at its securing location, loosen the bolt and with the rod to the throwout bearing turned fully Counter Clockwise, re-tighten the pedal securing bolt, so that the pedal is full up against the housing stop point. this gives about 1 to 1,5 inches of free travel before the throwout bearing touches the fingers, and you start to feel resistance against the pedal when pushing it down. Remember this is a result of the distance you have set the finger clearance at via the 3 adjustment bolts. Thats all i have, work[ed] for me, hope its of use, can't promise it will fix a totally gone clutch. good luck
