ADJUSTING THE POWER TAKE-OFF CLUTCH
A WARNING
To avoid possible injury, move speed control
lever into neutral, engage the single pedal
brake lock and turn the ignition "OFF" before
working on the machine.
A WARNING
The clutch may be hot. Allow the engine
and clutch to cool before adjusting the
clutch.
The clutch is factory adjusted and should not require
further adjustment under normal operating conditions.
However, if the clutch fails to operate properly, check
as follows:
Using a feeler gauge, check the air gap. (See Figure
25.) Insert feeler gauge into one of three access slots
located around the outside of the brake plate. The air
gap should be .017 inch. Adjust the self-locking nuts
to obtain the proper clearance. Repeat the operation
in all three access slots.

BRAKE ADJUSTMENT
During normal operation on this machine, the brakes
are subject to wear and will require periodic examina¬
tion and adjustment.
Brake adjustment check:
1. To check brake adjustment, place a 1 inch thick
wood block between the single brake pedal and
the brake lock tab (see Figure 26).
2. With the 1 inch thick wood block installed, the
brake disc pads should be applying a light
amount of friction against the brake disc rotor. If
they are not, the brakes need adjustment (see
Figure 27).
