Bush Hog model 285.... EG/Comer slip clutch...
It isn't slipping at all. Never slipped since new and it's probably a couple years old. I loosened all the bolts on the clutch, turned the driveline by hand and the gearbox didn't turn, which tells me that it isn't froze up.
Re-tightened all the bolts to factory spec (1.26" / 32mm spring length) and it still isn't slipping! Killed the tractor 3 times the other day and I'm scared something's gonna break if I don't get it to slip.
This is my first and only implement I have that has a slip clutch.
What should I do? How many turns do I need to back off of each nut?
Thanks.
