Hi,
Took the top plate off the headstock recently to check the clutch only to find the reverse clutch was getting very hot even when just using forward speeds. Presumed it needed adjustment so looked up the limited manual I have but I am having trouble sorting out exactly how to do it.
The clutch adjustment page shows a slightly different arrangement to mine. On mine if you press in the small pin you can them move the lever out which extracts a internal pin and the adjustment ring becomes free. As you turn it it moves in or out and adjusts the amount of free play for the clutch plates. On the instruction page it talks of different clutch sizes from 20 to 70. What does this refer to?
Has anyone adjusted their clutch and can give me some insights into measuring the "clutch size" and therefore the appropriate gap.
Thanks
Mark
