CLuTCH

This clutch system provides a high pulley ratio (a low gear-

so to speak) to start out and a low pulley ratio ( a high

gear- so to speak) for a high speed operation, with infinite

variation between the two.
This means that it will not be necessary to give full throttle

in order to “break the blades/pans loose”. The machine can

slowly be brought up to speed.
The torque sensitive pulley (Figure 26) utilizes a spring and

cam bracket. Peak performance results from proper

interaction between the driven pulley spring and the ramp

angle of the cam bracket.

Maintenance (OlD Style clutch)

NOTICE

If replacement of the clutch is required, use clutch replacement kit, P/N 22581, to upgrade to Multi-Clutch system. New

style drive assembly must be installed per instruction sheet, P/N 23444, included with clutch replacement kit.
Old style Comet clutch is no longer available. Multi-Clutch components are not interchangeable with the prior Hoffco

Comet drive system. The Hoffco Comet CVT system must be replaced for combatibility with the new equipment.
