Hello John A
I can't say I have worked on these landroll clutches.
It is a friction clutch energised by compression springs.

Grease impregnation of the components have finally taken their toll.

I guess the lining is cork stock (like on the Model 45).
I'm thinking new cork stock for the lining, if the existing lining is too thin,
or if solvent immersion cannot improve its life.

I hope a Supercut owner has experienced this.
Help!

Please keep us informed.

Thanks for the update.
