Hi
Shannon and
BB, I think that BB is right on the money and the cutter clutch cork needs replacing.
A picture says a thousand words.....here's your clutch cone in the
engaged position:

You will see how the cone is protruding....
Here's mine for comparison in the
engaged position:

You will see how mine does not protrude as much...this is because of the replaced new clutch cork.
Using BB's method, have a look and see the cork...if you can't, just remove the 3 screws that secure the clutch, and slide the outer half to the right and inspect the cork.
Shannon, my congrats on your work thus far mate,
