Hi jray, I have put all the pics into one post....(just a matter of posting all the [IMG] strings into the one post) to make it easier to see the problem you are having. wink
I can identify your model for you, it is a Model 430 Diplomat Scotty, and this particular model, along with the 590, won an Australian design award for being the first cylinder mowers with a rear mounted catcher, to allow you to mow up to a fence line or wall without removing the catcher. The only difference between the 430 and the 590 is basically the width of cut, much like the 17" and the 20" Scotty Model 45's.
Thanks for posting the pics, and it's now over to Bruce to help with the clutch problem, as I have had no experience with these particular models.
Best of luck with it, and we hope to see you posting in the future. smile
cheers2
