17.11. Disconnect the plug for the PTO clutch wire. It is
located on the right side of the tractor, just above
the opening in the frame that the wire passes
through to reach the PTO clutch.
See Figure 17.11.
17.12. Remove the bolt that holds the PTO clutch to the
crankshaft using a 5/8” wrench.
See Figure 17.12.
NOTE: If an impact wrench is unavailable it may
be necessary to use an improvised piston stop
or to hold the flywheel.
NOTE: On some models you may have to
remove the belt guide on the engine. Remove
the 1/2” bolt securing the belt guide to the frame
on the left hand side and slide the guide out of
the hole on the right hand side. See Figure
17.12.
17.13. Carefully lower the PTO clutch and any associ-
ated hardware off of the crankshaft.
17.14. Lower the drive pulley far enough to allow the
belt to slip past the keepers that are stamped
into the frame. Slip the belt off of the pulley and
remove the pulley. See Figure 17.14.
NOTE: Keep track of the position of any spacers
or washers that accompany the PTO clutch and
crankshaft pulley. Several different configura-
tions have been used.
