Flail Mower What is the difference

I found this https://www.tractorbynet.com/forums/files/attachments/75110d1177265787-slip-clutch-slip-clutch-settings-jpg here and wonder if it is for my clutch (don't know yet what clutch I have)?

I read that once a season one should loosen the clutch up and allow it to slip to be sure it isn't frozen. Then adjust to specifications and use normally.

You can loosen all the nuts a turn or so and then mow a bit. If the clutch slips you can tighten each nut an equal amount and mow again. What you wanting to do is make sure the disc are not seized with rust, dirt or other material. They need to be free to "slip". Then you want the disc to be pinched by the bolts enough to allow your tractor to mow tall grass without slipping. Just keep adjusting until you reach that point.

The concept of a particular torque setting may work fine, I just prefer being sure things can work as they were designed and do slip when a extra heavy load is applied. A little practice and you'll get the idea.
