Slip-Clutch questions

[KnuckleDragger]

I purchased a used batwing mower, and have some general slip-clutch questions. This post is a follow-on to one I started about a bat with with sticky hinges that turned out to be bent drive shafts.

How do I determine if a slip-clutch needs replacement?

How much time and cost is involved in replacining one (particular to a Bush Hog 2615 if you can, in general would be helpful too)

What are the routine PM activities for a slip-clutch? (I am lacking a manual for the mower, and have never owned one before).

Check out the Bush Hog site. You can download the manual for your cutter.

Thanks for the link. I love the smell of toner in the morning!
