JD455 Clutch Arm Updates
1. Mount the drive shaft bearing
holder provided with the kit.
Weld the bottom bracket to
the drill frame when the shaft
looks straight.
2. Install the chain tightener
provided with the kit (you may
need to shorten the chain).
3. Install the new clutch drive
arm. Drill a hole in the arm
so the clutch is disengaged
when the drill is up and
engaged when the drill is
down. The length extended
on the clutch arm is the same
distance that the seed bin
was raised, because of the
scale system.
