Is anyone out there familiar with how to slip this clutch? I got this old sidewinder its in petty decent shape but when I get into thick grass it just won't cut. I have to stop, raise it for a bit and put it back down many times. I'm thinking it's slipping and needs to be tightened or something. You tube instructions on slipping a clutch show a completely different type of clutch with bolts you can loosen all the way around. This one doesn't have those. There is a large nut behind it and I'm not sure if I should loosen that to see if that will slip it then re-tighten it or what to do. If I do loosen that big nu, how tight should I re-tighten it? Here are a couple of pictures of it.
