The information, specifications, and illustrations in this publication are on the basis of information that was current at the time this issue was written. Correct operation, maintenance, test and repair procedures will give this product a long service life. Before starting a test, repair or rebuild job, the serviceman must read the respective sections of this manual, and know all the components he will work on. Safety precautions, skill and knowledge are listed in the descriptions of operations where hazards exist. Warning labels have also put on the machine to provide instructions and identity specific hazards which, if not heeded, could cause bodily injury or death to you or other persons. These labels identity hazards which may not be apparent to a trained mechanic. There are many roten- tial hazards during repair for an untrained mechanic and there is no way to label the machine against all such hazards. These wamings in this manual and on the machine are identifiad by these symbols: Pub.

This clutch slips when an abnormally great external force acts on the blade to protect the components of implement against destructive overloading. The use of this ctch is of great advantage to that of the conventional shear pin because: (1) tis free from a replacement part such as a shear pin (it cuts downtime and expense needed for the part replacement). (2) Itmakes itpossible to adjust blade rotating torque for a given job. (3) Thanks to the advantages cited in (1) and (2) ‘above, it contributes much to high working effi- ciency.BLADE SLIP CLUTCH ‘The existing shear pin mechanism can be converted to this clutch mechanism by replacing the shear pin flange and pin rollers. “The major components ofthis clutch are mating plates 5 splined on pin roller 1, friction plates 6 splined on the circle reverse gear shaft and disc spring 7. When in engaged position (in the normal state), the spring holds the plate stack between the 6-mm (0.24-in) mating plates, and the entire assembly rotates as a Unit, When a reacting force is transmitted to this clutch, from the circle side (blade), the clutch slips to inter- rupt the force.

Install the pin roller so that S marks stamped on Its side face are positioned in the longitudinal di- rection of the machine. 3. Be sure to install the blade slip clutch parts from lower side with the blade rested on the ground. WARNING Do not inst the clutch parts with the blade held in bank-cut position, or the blade will rotate, re- sulting in serious injury. DISASSEMBLY AND REASSEMBLY 02463BLADE SLIP CLUTCH 4 5.

Plates 18 are used to prevent the mating plates and friction plates from cocking or ting to one side. Fit these plates in their grooves in the pin roller so that they will not protrude more than are necessary. Install cover 18 without inserting shims 16 and disc spring 17, and temporarily tighten the cover bolts. * The shims and dise spring are to be installed finally or after the thickness of the shims is determined.

Be sure to position the $ marks on the pin roller in the longitudinal direction of the machine when varying the clutch slip torque setting, or the circle will get in the way of removing or inserting the shims. 2. Do not remove the cover bolts (2 pes) close to the S marks but loosen them. Remove the other bolts. 3.
