Description
When your Ford compact tractor’s clutch starts slipping or chattering, especially when you’re switching between field work and PTO operations, it’s time to get that dual clutch system back in working order. This pressure plate works with your live PTO system to deliver smooth, positive power transfer whether you’re mowing, tilling, or running a loader. The 8-1/2″ size is specifically designed for the smaller Ford models that handle big jobs around farms and properties.
What You’re Getting
- 8-1/2″ dual clutch pressure plate engineered for Ford’s live PTO system
- Three-lever design provides even clamping pressure across the clutch disc
- Works with captured 8-1/2″ woven PTO disc for complete power transfer control
- Direct replacement for original equipment – no modifications needed
Built for Real Farm Work
Your Ford 1310, 1510, and 1710 tractors are compact workhorses that punch above their weight class. These versatile machines handle everything from mowing pastures and maintaining fence lines to light tillage and loader work around the farmyard. The dual clutch system lets you engage and disengage PTO power independently from the drive clutch, so you can stop forward motion while keeping implements running.
Made to Last
This pressure plate is built to handle the stop-and-go nature of compact tractor work where you’re constantly engaging and disengaging the clutch for precise maneuvering. The three-lever design distributes clamping force evenly, preventing hot spots and premature wear that can plague single-spring designs.
Good to Know
Clutch work on these Ford compacts requires splitting the tractor, so it’s smart to replace both the pressure plate and disc together. Check your flywheel surface while you’re in there – any glazing or heat checking should be addressed to get maximum life from your new components. The live PTO system means you’ll want to verify proper adjustment after installation.
