Hello everyone. Well I recived my operators manual and shop manual today in the mail. I decided to check my clutch out. By the manual it said that I need to have about 1 1/2 inches of free play in the clutch and I only had 3/4 inch. So I decided to adjusted it from what the manual said and I also adjusted the TA also. As some may have read from my other posts, my TA doesn't work really. It did a little bit in the lower gears with no load and not at all in 5th. Anyway I thought I should at least adjust it to what the maual said. I did that then tried the tractor out. The TA still doesn;t work but now it makes like a ticking noise when it is in TA mode. It didn't do that before. In direct mode is seems to work fine. No big deal since the TA didn't work before.

One question is if I start the tractor up, push the clutch in and try to put it in gear right after I push the clutch in it grinds gears. I have to try is a few times and the gears slow down enough to get it into gear. Is that normal? I don't recall it doing it that much before but I wondered if it was something I did.

Also since my TA doesn't work, do the TA's usually go out or is it the clutch?

Thanks
Mark

NO ! ITS NOT NORMAL , If that clutch is adjusted right you will have NO grinding, and you can shift on the go.even though these 460s, 560s, 660s,arnt the best shifting, nothing like the old W6, it would down shift on the go with not a grind !

You'll probably want to double-check all your adjustments, and maybe even have someone with more experience double-check your double-check. Properly adjusting these tractors with mechanical TAs is a very precise job. If you're out of adjustment at all on either the clutch or the TA, you end up with things not working right.

It does sound like you're close, though.

It's normal for some gear "clash" if you try to put it in gear right after shoving the clutch pedal. The transmission has to stop spinning. It's not a synchromesh transmission.

However, if you're getting gear clash when shifting from gear to gear, with the tractor stopped, you didn't get the clutch adjustment right. With the tractor in gear, stopping the tractor also stops the transmission. If it's spinning back up after you take it out of gear, with the clutch pushed in, the clutch is still grabbing.
