F-Dean said: (quoted from post at 11:44:59 03/01/09) On my M, which should be similar, I installed the clutch and then adjusted the fingers to all be the same distance from the throw-out bearing -- after I had adjustd the clutch linkage so that the throw-out bearing would be as far back as possible. My logic was to have them all (3 on a M) release at the same time and rate.
If you adjusted them to be as far back as possible you will not have any adjustment for free travel as the clutch wears. As the disc wears thinner the levers will move back farther.
A properly adjusted pressure plate assembly should have the levers about parallel with the friction surface of the cast plate with a new disc installed. Unless the PPA has been disassembled for service you should not have to adjust the lever height. When properly rebuilt they are adjusted to a couple of thousands of an inch, much closer than you can get adjusting then installed in a tractor. Unless something is worn out or broken this adjustment should not change.
