Clutch adjustment for '44 B

You go through the hole in the bottom of the clutch housing.  Let me see if I can remember back some almost 40 years.  There are three clutch fingers.  They are pushed forward by a "throw out bearing".  The 1/4" clearance is between the throw out bearing and the clutch fingers.  It can be adjusted by adjustment screws on the fingers.  There is a lock nut that needs to be loosened.  Then the adjustment can be made and the lock nots re-tightened.  Repeat till all three are set.  There is also a small adjustment that can be made on the clutch rod.  To adjust the clutch rod is removed from the clutch pedal and turned to adjust.  We very seldom used that adjustment but adjusted the clutch with the fingers.

My clutch doesn't slip but it does have alot of play and I want to get rid of that and tighten it up Thanks for the help

The clutch fingers are adjusted to be 1-13/16" from the clutch disc. Once this is accomplished, the 1/4" between the throw out bearing and the fingers is done by removing the cotter pin that holds the clutch rod to the pedal and rotating the rod to adjust. The rod is threaded at the end where it attaches to the throw out bearing inside the bell housing. The fingers are usually adjusted when a new clutch disc is installed and the tractor is split. I would imagine it would last the lifetime of the disc as long as free play has been maintained between the throw out bearing and the fingers. When the disc wears the fingers move toward the throw out bearing. It will be hard to do put together.

It sounds to me like you want to adjust the free travel of the pedal, which has nothing to do with adjusting the fingers on the clutch.

wbecker,  it is from an RC.

I'm in Peine Ridge Subdivision-where are you?
