Using my Case 1170 for haying and finding it REAL hard not to have to ride the clutch a lot. Everything from turning, to feathering in a windrow with baler, to loading bales on truck. Lots of clutch slipping.
Being from the motorcycle world, I actually teach people to USE the pizz out of the clutch. However, that is a wet multi plate and cheap and easy to fix.
