Hi All:
well lets start off with basics.
Jinma 284 with 150 hrs. I've got my FEL on full time and use it as a bull dozer much of the use it has had so clutch abuse is pretty high.
Recently I been roto-tillering a lot! unbroken ground and running in LL2~3 yesterady I Mowed wih the 5' finish mower and all went well cept for a flat tire on the mower...
anyhow the problem is that the Clutch for the PTO does not engauge prior to the MAIN drive clutch. both main & pto clutchs engauge nearly at the top of the clutch pedal travel. It was better before all the tillering I did the last month. It was pretty much WHERE it should be PTO engauged at 1/2 way up and then clutch engauged the last 2" of travel. as it is now I'm getting both on in the last 1" of travel. I printed a copy of the CLUTCH adjustment procedures from the NYCTO post on main drive clutch adjustment. (note had to HIGHLIGHT the page to read it. as the Orange on the grey was not showing up.)
anyhow is there a way to make the free play between the PTO and the MAIN clutch better? or will adjusting the main fix the problem>?
thanks in advantce. If I end up tearing into mine I'll take some good detailed pictures. first off I'll have ot pull the FEL (has not been done since I assembled it 2 yrs ago...
