Hello DJ welcome to YT! I really know nothing about

your tractor in particular. But I looked up on Tractor

data that it is a Romanian built 80hp tractor and

utilizes a dry clutch. So first item to check is if the

clutch has some amount of free play. This tells you that

the clutch is not being held in a partly released state

which would cause it to slip. To check for free play

from the position when your foot is off the clutch there

should be at least some amount of movement with

very low resistance as you start pushing down the

pedal. Then there should be a point when the

resistance becomes greater when you actually start

releasing the clutch working against the stronger

springs inside the clutch pressure plate. The distance

of the light resistance is the free play. There is a

specification for an actual setting but really if you have

some say at least a half inch it is enough to tell you

your clutch is not being held partially released. if you

do find there is free play then likely your clutch is on

its way out and it is doubtful there is an adjustment to

tighten it, most modern clutch systems simply do not

have this option. I might add that you should look at

the clutch linkage while moving it and make sure you

see it moving linkage to work a shaft that goes into the

clutch housing. If you do not see that it may have a

hydraulic type clutch on it which my free play

descriptions above does not apply to. Usually the

recommendation here is to obtain a repair manual for

your machine to aid you with addressing these types of

problems.

Edit: Sorry, but using Barnyards link I cannot tell you if the clutch is hydraulic or not. It appears they chose not to scan the parts diagram for the clutch pedal and linkage.
