Atco standard clutch
Good evening all,
Just having a few issues with my clutch, got the engine running and all blades sharpened but cannot get the clutch right.
Does anyone have a diagram?
The clutch was originally seized but I freed the clutch plates easily. Now I would like to know if the spring basket pictured should be free from the shaft or not. Currently it is unmovable?
Thought I'd better check prior to doing any work.
Is it also possible to remove the small guide rail in the shaft?
Thanks
Mike

A very happy tinkerer, now onto the next mower ... See other threads!!

Fairly sure that the Spring Container is fixed to the shaft. In the parts list (see link below) it has a grommet of some kind visible to attach it to the shaft.
