Hello all!
I am needing to adjust the clutch on my M, something just isnt right with it. The pedal "catches" right a the very end of the stroke. I have an inch or so of free play, and then I can actually feel that Im moving something. However, its very difficult to smoothly engage the clutch, and it usually ends up looking (and feeling) like I dont know how to use one.
I have an IT shop manual and the owners manual (one of which I hope has the adjustment instructions) but Im still not sure if I can adjust it so that things will work. I have been told that I can look at the clutch without splitting the tractor, which is a good thing.
But to be honest, I dont know what I should be looking for. I get the idea behind how a clutch works and all of those things, but Ive never had to change one, and I always hear to check for throwout and pilot bearings and whatnot, and Im just not sure what to look for.
Does anyone have any pictures of their clutch that I can use as a reference? If I end up having to tear into it, I really want to make sure Im doing things the right way.
If no pictures, any tips you might have are also much appreciated 
Thanks in advance, and sorry for the long post.

The nice thing about our old iron friends is that they are usually quite consistent in their response, rather unlike some people I know who might change what they say due to the weather or other mitigating circumstances. But since t
