You can usually get at the clutch by removing the starter and working through the hole. Heat a kitchen knife about 2 inches from the end, and bend it 90 degrees. Tie the clutch pedal down, and, working in the gaps in the pressure plate, work the point of the knive down between the clutch disk and flywheel. Because the tool is bent 90 degrees, you can pry on the disk by moving the knife handle laterally. Rotate the flywheel, and repeat. You'll eventually "worry" the disk loose. Might want to tie down the clutch pedal in the future during wet seasons, because it seems some tractors are prone to stuck clutches, and will do so over and over.
