Clutch troubleshooting
| Failure
| Cause(s)
| Solution
| Friction plate binding
| – Distortion occurred during
transportation
| – Adjust binding, since the friction
plate should not exceed 1.00 mm
| Friction plate seized to
pilot-shaft
| – Shaft splines were distorted during
refitting
– Hub or splines worn
– The hub rusted on the pilot-shaft
| – Eliminate burrs or replace the
friction plate.
– Replace friction plate or shaft or
both
– Clean up and lubricate it lightly.
| Friction plate stuck to
flywheel or pressure plate
| – Tractor stored for extended period,
without clutch being released.
| – Clean the surfaces of the flywheel
and plateau and friction plate,
coating with thin sandpaper.
| Friction plate seized to
flywheel or pressure plate
by vacuum
| – Rivets without holes or dust in the
holes
| – Pierce the hole with a 2 mm
diameter drill boring
– Sandpaper the coating surface to
allow the clutch facing to be
somewhat rough.
