Why don't the clutches disengage on my Kinze Lawn and Garden Equipment?

  Jonathan ArnoldAug 25, 2025
  If no clutches disengage on your Kinze Lawn and Garden Equipment, several issues could be the cause. First, check if the main fuse in the control console is blown and replace it if defective. Next, inspect for poor terminal connections or any damage to the wiring harness and repair or replace as needed. Also, ensure there is adequate voltage at the coil (12 volts required); check the battery connections. Address each of these potential issues to restore clutch disengagement.

Why won't one clutch engage on my Kinze Lawn and Garden Equipment?

  If one clutch will not engage on your Kinze Lawn and Garden Equipment, there are several potential causes: * Blown fuses: Replace any defective fuses. * Stuck actuator arm and plunger: Remove, free up, and reinstall the actuator arm and plunger if they are stuck in the disengaged position. * Misadjusted actuator arm: Adjust the actuator arm mounting pin in the slot so that the actuator arm clears the stop on the stop collar by approximately 1/8" when the clutch is rotated. * Broken or stretched wrap spring: Disassemble the clutch and replace the spring. * Obstruction touching the stop collar: Check to ensure the collar is free to turn with the clutch. * Incorrect clutch assembly: Check the clutch and diagram for correct assembly.

What causes clutch slipping on Kinze 3600?
- M
  Melissa MillerAug 26, 2025
  If the clutch is slipping on your Kinze Lawn and Garden Equipment, the wrap spring may be stretched. To check, “lock” the clutch output shaft from turning, place a torque wrench on the input shaft, and rotate it in the direction of drive. After the input shaft has rotated a short distance, the wrap spring should tighten onto the input hub. If slippage occurs at less than 100 ft. lbs., replace the spring. If the spring still slips after installing a new spring, replace the input hub.

What to do if my Kinze Lawn and Garden Equipment planter doesn't raise to transport position?
- K
  Kimberly WarrenAug 27, 2025
  If the planter raises to the raised field position but doesn't reach the transport position, the solenoid valve coil in port V16 might not be energized, or the solenoid valve cartridge in port V16 could be stuck closed. First, ensure the control console switch is in the “raise” position to energize the solenoid coil in port V16. Check the control console fuse by moving the auxiliary switch to the ON position; if the red light illuminates, the fuse is OK. Return the auxiliary switch to the OFF position. Inspect for poor wire connections or damaged wires and repair them. As a troubleshooting step, you can switch the solenoid coil or cartridge with one known to be working. If this resolves the issue, replace the defective component.

Why does the left wing raise faster than the right wing on my Kinze Lawn and Garden Equipment?
- C
  Corey HallSep 8, 2025
  If the left wing of your Kinze Lawn and Garden Equipment raises faster than the right wing, it's likely that the master cylinder, located on the rear side of the center post, is leaking internally. To fix this, you'll need to repair the master cylinder.

Why won't the cylinders retract on my Kinze 3600?
- J
  Jane HowardSep 2, 2025
  If the cylinders on your Kinze Lawn and Garden Equipment will not retract, the solenoid valve coil in port V4 may not be energized, or the solenoid valve cartridge in port V4 could be stuck closed. To troubleshoot, first check for power to the coil and inspect the coil ground wire. If those are okay, switch the coil from port V4 with the coil from port V3. If the cylinders then retract but will not extend, replace the defective coil. Alternatively, the solenoid valve cartridge in port V4 could be stuck closed. Try switching the cartridge in port V4 with the cartridge in port V3. If the cylinders retract but will not extend, replace the defective cartridge.

Why won't the cylinders extend or retract on my Kinze Lawn and Garden Equipment?
- A
  Andrew DanielsAug 31, 2025
  If the cylinders on your Kinze Lawn and Garden Equipment will not extend or retract, the issue might be due to no power reaching the solenoid valve coils. Ensure the auxiliary switch is in the OFF position. Check the fuse at the control console and replace it with a 15 amp type AGC fuse if it's blown. Also, inspect for poor wire connections or damaged wires and repair as necessary.

What causes cylinders not to extend on Kinze 3600 Lawn and Garden Equipment?
- A
  Andrew CamposSep 1, 2025
  If the cylinders on your Kinze Lawn and Garden Equipment will not extend, the solenoid valve coil or cartridge in port V3 may be the problem. Check for power to the coil and inspect the coil ground wire. If those are okay, switch the coil from port V3 with the coil from port V4. If the cylinders then extend but will not retract, replace the defective coil. Alternatively, the solenoid valve cartridge in port V3 could be stuck closed. Try switching the cartridge in port V3 with the cartridge in port V4. Again, if the cylinders extend but will not retract, replace the defective cartridge.
