Unless it is a composite tractor it is a SMTA. There were SMTAs with no TA (TA delete) that were sold. If it had linkage at one point, it was a SMTA. The TA cannot be tested without at least the TA release shaft and a bit of enginuity. The TA release shaft is rearward of the main clutch release shaft. it has an arm going upwards and an arm going downwards that is a little longer. If this is intact, the following test should work. put the tractor in 3rd gear, not running. Put a 4"X4" wood block under one rear tire so that the tractor tire is off center to the rear. This will cause the tractor to want to roll rearward. Put a second 4X4 about 6 inches away from the rear of the blocked tire to prevent the tractor from going too far if it rolls. If the TA one way clutch is good the tractor will not roll rearward in gear. If it does not roll, test the TA drive clutch by rotating the above mentioned lever counterclockwise (a piece of pipe will assist doing this as it is not easy to move). Be careful!! The TA lever will only need to move a small amount to release the clutch. As it releases the tractor will roll rearward. Do not move the lever more than a few degrees of rotation, it does not move far. If the tractor moves, it is reasonable to find linkage and adjust it To the book adjustments. Do not drive the tractor to make it work with the system disconnected and doing the above. Safety must rule. This test procedure does not provide certainty of operation, only enough info to put it together correctly to see if it works under load. Jim

Looking around at my new neighbors, most of whom are city raised and have recently acquired their first mini-farms of five to fifteen acres and also from reading questions ask at various discussion sites on the web it is frighteningly apparent that a great many guys (and a few gals) are learning by trial and error and mostly error how to use a very dangerous piece of farm equipment. It is also very apparent that these folks are getting a lot of very poor and often very dangerous advice fro
