[quote="farmerjohn"](quoted from post at 17:52:57 06/11/09) You are pushing the clutch all the way down? There is one position to disengage the transmission and push down further to disengage the pto. I remember learning to drive our B-414 as a kid and had to stand and put all my weight on the pedal to get it down to the pto position.[/quot
I set the clutch pedal height with the adjusting screw to specs and the freeplay with the clamping bolts on the clutch shaft to specs. The pedal goes to about 1/8" above the footplate. I admit that I also checked to see if a little more pedal travel and a little less freeplay might work but it made no difference so I reset both to specs. All it feels like is the main clutch. There is no difference in the effort required anywhere in the pedal stroke or pedal "feel" that might indicate that another set of springs were being depressed to engage the PTO clutch. I need to look at the manual again to see if the PTO friction could get rusted to the pressure plate or spline and prevent the clutch from disengaging. The tractor was not used for a long time before I bought it.
