Engine/Clutch Alignment.

[Powaton]

I'm checking my clutch alignment and things have moved from last season.

In the picture, I have the secondary clutch loose to illustrate.

At #1 the secondary is touching the bar. At #2 there is a .140 gap.

Do I adress this with just engine movement? Or do I need to move the jack shaft too? What is the best way to tackle this?

First make sure the clutch tool is in the primary correctly. Rotate both clutches and check in different spots. If gap has changed from last year you probably have to change your mounts.

Thanks.

Sled only has 800 miles on it. Is it possible that the mounts are out already?

Could be. The MAG side are pretty soft. Get the updated PTO side mounts and install them on both sides.

I have a 2016. What year did the update happen?

Came out last fall I believe.

Please verify alignment after you switch those rubber mounts.
