Here is how you do it quickly and safely. First go to your local auto parts store and pick up a trailer jack. Then be sure that the 600 is on a smooth level surface, and with a carpenters level held at the bottom of the engine block, insure that it is level front to rear. If not put boards under the front tires to bring the front up to where it is level. It is very difficult to mate the rear up to the front if the rear is moving uphill as it is getting closer to the front. Next, you remove the left running board, and lean the trailer jack up against the round cover on the side of the rear housing where the PTO lever is. Now you sketch a plan for a bracket to attach your jack to the side of the tractor. You should be able to make this from two pieces of three inch angle stock. If you just drill holes and bolt it together you will be able to adapt it to other tractors. The bracket will mount onto the two studs that the running board bolts to plus the bottom one on that same round cover. Now you can jack the rear part just to where it takes a little weight. For the front you can lift under the oil pan. You won't hurt it. It is best to crib close up to it, then take the weight off with four fairly thin wedges. You want to have blocking that is a good six inches wider than the pan on each side. For extra security drive wedges in between the front axle and the front fame as well. You now have it secure with the Hobo NC non-patented tractor rear jack. Now you can do the normal disconnecting and unbolting, then roll the back away from the front. You can see that it will be next to impossible for it to fall from this method of support. We always roll the rear from the front because, larger tires roll more easily and the larger tires give you leverage to make it much easier. While replacing the clutch you will want to also renew your transmission input seal, clutch release bearing, and drive shaft pilot bearing.
