Thankyou Posted March 18 Author Share Posted March 18 Sorry I haven't posted any updates on this for a bit; I have been down with pneumonia. I got it tore down today, that was one heck of a struggle. I have a new level of hatred for mice and the destruction they cause. It does appear to be the same as a td6 or rockford style 12 inch clutch with two arms on the pressure plate as was posted above. The clutch disk was not only fused with the flywheel and pressure plate but the mouse house and urine had it almost rusted through. One of the lobes on the shafts in the pressure plate is completely rusted away from the previously mentioned mouse house. I havent been able to get the adjusting ring on the pressure plate to move even with a liberal application of heat, force and penetrating fluid. I think I'm going to call the pressure plate and clutch disk a total loss at this point. I had to heat the clutch disk hub cherry red to get it off the input shaft. That made one of the worst mixes of smoke I have ever been around, it was a combination of burning oil, clutch material and mouse urine. Even the dog wanted out of the building!

Thankyou Posted March 18 Author Share Posted March 18 20 minutes ago, hillman said: The TD6/T6 clutch is a 12 inch but the part numbers and illustrations are different for what its Worth. Specifically #17 and #20 I don't think you will have a problem finding a proper used one It looks like your top parts breakdown. I haven't been able to get 4 and 17 apart. The # 16 shafts are completely rusted away so I'm going to just find a different pressure plate to start with. The clutch disk is also rotted through so I'll need that also. I don't know how the mice got in there but they build one heck of a house that caused a lot of damage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diesel Doctor Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 You win! That is the worst mouse infested clutch I have ever seen. The flywheel will probably clean up but the rest is very questionable. You need to get your shopping list together and talk with MikeM. But his W9 is setting in a big snow bank. He likes nothing more than moving every flake of snow on his property.

hillman Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 you could also convert it to a regular pressure plate style clutch with a pedal at this time. You are buying everything else and locating the normal setup from a W9-650 would be easier and not hard to do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Part of the reason for buying the tractor was the hand clutch. I'm missing my left foot. I can run foot clutches but hand clutch are a lot easier for me.

Thankyou Posted March 19 Author Share Posted March 19 On 3/8/2023 at 3:11 PM, ray54 said: Being a crawler guy and the clutch being on the left, and pulling to you to engage, and JD being opposite on both counts. Where did IH put and push or pull to engage? Right side and push to engage. It also has a shaft brake that stops the shaft from spinning when you pull back.

timbo1946 Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 Saw this on facebook. No info on type of clutch, but might be a lead. If clutch lever is on the right side like my OS6, I don't see one https://www.facebook.com/groups/1608390002744896/permalink/3304667619783784/?sale_post_id=3304667619783784&mibextid=W9rl1R Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
