My neighbor has a 2444 (label on the hood).

Does this have a live PTO? Does the foot clutch disengage it? He has had it for several years and cannot disengage the PTO other than shifting it out of gear. With the PTO engaged, the transmission in neutral, and the clutch all the way down, the PTO is still hooked to the engine.

I'm assuming it has a two stage clutch which is inoperative or needs adjusting but he has no manual (I'm ordering him one) and it is about 20 years too new for me and my letter series.

Like the neighbor boy said when I was checking him out on the M to bale and I told him it had no live PTO "What is a live PTO" because he had been raised exclusively on new tractors with electric PTO controls.

Any advice would be appreciated. I'm also wondering if this is a B2444 as I have heard of the British designation but not just plain 2444 and I forgot to look at the serial number plate.

Andy

Andy you are correct in assuming it is english design, and a two stage clutch. Usually what happens is the shaft that goes into the clutch housing that you clutch pedal is attatched to slips. so before going to far take the cover off below the clutch housing with a flashlight look intowards the fingers on the pressure plate and while some one presses the pedal down see if everything is moving or the pivot pins are rusted. If rusted shoot some wd-40 at the pins avoiding getting it to wet. when it is working a little freer you should feel a step where the second stage releases. although at this point as I said, you are going to readjust your clutch, with a wrench on the flat of the release shaft coming from the housing hold it just so you have clearance at the fingers at clutch. Then re tighten the two clamp bolts on pedal. you should have an adjustment stop bolt on the pedal or tang on tractor to give you clearance also. Good luck.
