Another first-timer question: Towards the end of an hour's worth of snow plowing, I got some grinding when shifting. In stead of my usual sufficient clutch depression, I made sure to stand on the clutch pedal and the grinding went away, for a while. It came back, even with standing on the pedal, as I parked in the barn. So the clutch was partially engaged even with my depressing the pedal all the way. Took a look at the clutch and found one of the three release levers is riding on the release bearing, one is about 1/16" off the bearing and the last is about 1/4" off the bearing. Can these be adjusted individually? I know all are supposed to be 3/16" away from the release bearing. If they are individually adjustable, should I try to even the other two levers with the one that is 1/4" away from the release bearing and then adjust the pedal rod to get the 3/16" clearance? I've about 1/2" of threads on the rod, inside the pedal lever. The clutch was performing fine up until now. What I can see of the clutch plate itself looks like it's got a healthy 1/8" or more of pad. I'd checked the free play on the pedal about six hours ago and that was pretty much right on the 1 and 1/8". I did not check the release lever clearance until now. Thanks, Dave

The garden was already sprouting when we hooked up the mid-mount shovel cultivators to the Pony. The seed bed was soft enough that the rear end would spin and slowly work its way to the downhill side of the gardens slight incline. From this, we learned our lesson sinc
