I still have drive problems with mine.
When dismantled, the clutch lining was badly glazed and I identified that as the reason the clutch was slipping.
Made a new one out of 3mm gasket cork that looked very similar to what was already there, I noticed that Grumpy alludes to it being glued to the clutch plate, my old one wasnt and neither is the new one I fitted.
Fired the machine up and everything seemed good.
Lifted the rear end to watch the rollers and when drive was engaged and the hand lever depressed the rollers turned with no sign of the clutch slipping.
Lowered the machine to the ground and the rollers no longer turn with the weight of the machine on them, so I must be losing power transfer somewhere, although there is no visible sign of the clutch slipping.
My thoughts now are that the clutch is slipping under load because it's not glued to the clutch plate, anyone any thoughts or knowledge as to whether it is normal for them to be glued??
Do the replacements have glue already on them??
