Where are the set screws to take this clutch off?

[stormsgate]

Hey guys.....new thread because i am having a specific problem again even though I have received some awesome answers! I am going to post a pic. This is the clutch on my Loncin 6.5 HP engine model G200F. Have looked everywhere for set screws to take this off. The picture shows the center bolt still in but i have already removed that thanks to all you guys. ( this is the most polite forum I have ever been too! )......anyway if anyone has an idea where to look and do all of these have set screws to remove? or do they vary on ways that they are held on?

It varies, depending on clutch model. Some don't have them. Some are on the back side (toward the engine).

That's because we still remember what it was like when we started out knowing nothing & learned along the way.

I've found that, on most forums, everyone knows everything & you're a moron if you don't so you don't belong there. We expect 15yo noobs (& older ones) to have questions. I've been in the auto industry for 25 years & even I had questions...

I frequently visit one or two Australian based forums that are pretty good but, they still don't top this one...

I agree.

You might find that your clutch doesn't have any set screws. Some clutches just attach using a key and keyway, as well as the center bolt you have removed. It could be that your clutch has just gotten a bit stuck on the crank and needs a little persuation with a gear puller. If you have looked everywhere, and you cannot see any screws (they aren't going to be hidden from sight), then you more than likely don't have any. I would then soak the shaft in some sort of penetrating oil and then try give it a good pull.

yep...thats sounds right. you will probably need a gear puller if it doesn't come out easily.

IT WORKED!!! You were right there were no set screws! Used all the information that everyone gave me on here and i got it off without tearing anything up. I pulled on it with a controlled firm pull and it came right off!! YOU GUYS ARE THE BEST!!
