One problem solved, another appears -- standard procedure. My 460 Hi Utility has a new clutch in it. Adjusted the clutch linkage and TA linkage together to the specs in the IT manual. The engine clutch does not fully disengage, meaning I can't shift gears with the engine running. I can put it in low or reverse with the engine off, let out the clutch and the tractor moves. It also tends to creep with the clutch in. The clutch fingers were preadjusted at the factory. Against my better judgement, I started messing with them, with no results. I kept track of the amount I moved each adjustment screw for a while, but then lost track. My manuals do not list the clearance between the release bearing and the fingers. Does anyone know that spec?. Is it highly critical? Before I started messing with it it looked like it could be 1/16-1/8 inch or so. Barely moving the screws makes a lot of difference in the clearance, but doesn't help any. Don't know if it will do any good anyway, as I have had them from loose to overtight with no results. Tighter, turning them in clockwise decreases the clearance and makes the clutch more fully disengage? This may not be the proper way, but after I had the clutch and TA adjusted to "specs", I disconnected the TA and concentrated only on the engine clutch, intending to adjust the TA and make final adjustments after I finally get the transmission disconnected from the engine. My thinking is that the TA adjustment does not change the engine clutch adjustment, but that they both have to be adjusted correctly for the TA to work correctly, so why can't I get the thing to disengage?
