Hi all,
I have a B6100HST that is having a problem with the clutch. The clutch doesn't disengage all the way when you depress the pedal. It's still trying to spin the shafts post-clutch (although not as much as with it engaged). How big of a job is it to replace the clutch/throw-out bearing on one of these (or similar)? How difficult is it to split the tractor (how much peripheral stuff do you have to take off to be able to split it)? Any suggestions are appreciated.
Thanks,
Mike

Could this just be a linkage adjustment ?

There's not much to adjust externally. I already tried what little is there, but it didn't seem to help. ....

Mike,
I split a Ford loader a few years back to put a clutch in and I expect the basics would work on your Kubota too. Park on a solid level area. We used 2 heavy jack stands and a steel beam under the front half and shimmed it with wood for fine adjustment. The back we put a barn scoop on the 3 point and loaded it for close balance and used a cherry picker (engine hoist) from the rear to roll the sections apart. FYI, A sticky clutch may be from oil on the disk. You may want to be prepared to fix a leak while you are in there. While you are in there I would highly recommend you have the flywheel resurfaced. Any auto machine shop can do this for you and some parts stores offer this service too. Replace the pressure plate and for sure get a new throw-out bearing. Its a job a friend and I did in one day. Watch your fingers and toes, there is some weight there. Good luck. Glenn ....
