Hey All,
Newly registered member here. Have browsed here a lot, and gotten a lot of good information. So, thank you all for that! I've got a late 90's 1920 with 1460hrs on it. Bought it at auction a few years ago, and have not had any unusual issues with it. Worst has been new lines for the loader. Ran a brush hog with it last year with no problems. Got a "new" one last weekend and hooked it up for a simple function test. No joy...Clutch fully depressed PTO just wants to grind. Started troubleshooting, and my clutch linkage was bent with no free play. Unsure how long it had been this way. Straightened it out and got free play to right at 1". Went back to the cutter, and no improvement. Just wants to grind. With no load, it'll slip in without grinding but PTO spins...What's the likely hood a clutch adjustment will fix this, or am I SOL and either need to find someone to replace it or pony up and take it to a dealer? I'm not afraid of turning wrenches, but splitting the tractor and replacing is it outside my comfort zone...
Thanks,
R
