D14 Dilemma

one of my 14's is like that, but not that tight, Has this always been like that?

Dan

The pedal is NOT for a D14.  As you can see, there is a "tail" below the pedal's shaft that is resting on the foot pan.  That can prevent the pedal from returning to its natural position.

Here are 2 completely original D14s that do not have that tail on the pedal...
58 D14...

59 D14 (over serial #19001 - same as above) ...

     Hey Alan,,,that picture kept botherin me so I went out and had a closer look see at my 1960 D14. The "stop" that Dseries4 is referring to is also present on my pedal, and appears it's function is to limit the REARWARD travel of the pedal to a certain point.   but the front (top) part of the pedal IS different on my D14 from yours,,!! the front part of yours has that 45 degree bend right under the foot rest,,,,went and looked at the one on the D15,,,,and yours is exactly like the one on my D15,,,,,????

    

Its to darn far away! That's what's wrong with it. LOL!! I'd have a real dilemma trying to reach it with my short little legs! I'd be makin' modifications to that dude, or find out why its like that, compared to Myrons D14 pedal location. Woo wee!   LOL!

Great it's only 8*F here and now I WANT to go outside and take pictures of the pedals on the 'group of four'...brrrr...
I know I added 2-3" of rod on 'Troy' to get the pedal more upright.At the time(10yr ago) it was thought the nonAGCO clutch disk was to blame.All I know is that it works fine.
Maybe come noon I'll venture out and take the pictures.

With my luck I'll have 3 different pedals !!

Were the spring is located it should be out to the bump on the housing. all my tractor are the same.
yours is pushed down some already not allowing the clutch petal to travel enough.
Look at the D series4 picture and you can see were this should stop.

also I learned you can not take out the PTO engager from late tractor and install into early one.

   

I'll tell youse guys something,,,,a little sunlight does change your perception of some things,,don't it,,?? AND,,,I guess my Toolie-Wak is the blackest on this one,,,, got to wonderin why there would be different pedals so went back out this morning with the camera that don't lie,,,,,and it does appear to be a little difference in the little tab at bottom that linits too much rearward travel, but the rest seems to be similar to all the posted pics. What would be differences from the early to later ones,,??
Gary might have part of the answer in the rod being screwed into the fork too much. If I remember right (?), you can back the rod out without completely unscrewing it out of fork.
I had to machine a "spacer" to lengthen the rod for the D14 due to flywheel havin been machined and to get pedal to stand up more for MY short legs,,,,(Ya see, Steve, you ain't the only'ist one like thet)    
    

AJ, just trade with one off Randy's D14, he has lots to pick from and might not even miss it. lmao

now they might be better...

Amazing what comes up on this forum !! Somebody needs to go look at a D10/D12 or D15 to see what tractor AJ's pedal came from.

Here is the dimension of the late D 14 petal.



The early D14 petal.

Maybe it's missing the spring on the lever. I don't know these things. This is my first D14 so I'm learning on this one. What does the spring look like?

Richard what are the serial numbers of the tractors those pedals are on?

With some of the differences it's almost like there was an early series and a late series. Like a series 1 and series 2 kinda...

D 14 serial #4262 off the torque tube this is the Early clutch petal.
D 14 serial #28268 is the one with the late clutch Petal.
Measuring the clutch rods there was only a difference 1/4" from the torque tube housing as I can not get into the torque tube area figure one is just screw in farther than the other.

Early D 14 would be a Non Bar grill screen.
