Chadd, the free play is measured from the platform of tractor to the clutch pedal. The spring is what returns it to the same position all the time. This rod only adjust the amount of free travel in the pedal distance from the platform. The proper free travel distance from pedal to platform is 1 and 1/8th of an inch. This is determined by pushing the pedal in until it meets resistance. Then measure from pedal to platform and adjust accordingly to 1 and 1/8. It does nothing to the clutch itself. Again the rod doesn't adjust anything except the pedal travel. Once the clutch starts slipping there is nothing you can do to remedy it except replacing it or the pressure plate or both. If you adjust the rod to keep pressure on the throwout bearing it will cause problems such as disc and throwout bearing wear.
