chipper issue

[miko0618]

my Asplundh chuck and duck wont disengage when I push the lever up. any possible reasons why?

You probably do not have a grease gun?

is the lever spline well connected to the clutch shaft or is it just loose and so not actually effectively disengaging?

Take the inspection plate off and look in. What ever it is its an easy fix. Its either the yoke that holds the throw-out bearing, the throw out bearing, or the pressure plate.

there's a grease fitting thear for it next to the shaft

the lever is tight on the spline. I didn't know the grease fitting were there until yesterday. i'll try that.

I have to be honest, i'll be surprised if its that simple of a fix lol. that's just not how things work for me

I had a follow up thread to this one. it had a list of clutches that worked. unfortunately I was wrong about the engine in my chipper and I cannot find the thread. so, I have an inline 4 cylinder motor in my chipper. does anyone know what clutch I am going to need? or off what vehicle? thanks

You should be able to match the numbers on it.

 

[miko0618]

so pull the clutch and look for them there?

thats what i would do. You are guessing without pulling it out.
