Stuck Clutch

[bwilso]

Ford 600 Clutch is stuck again. The first time, I got it unstuck by just shoving it in gear and driving awhile. Came unstuck and worked fine. Now the clutch is stuck again and will not release. Please advise.
Thanks

Keep driving it and jump on the brakes and clutch. Might take a few times. Block down the clutch pedal in the future to prevent the disc from rusting to the flywheel. I was able to slip mine into first gear in low idle and was able to free it up by doing that a few times. Never happened again and tractor lives outside.

If you decide you need to split the tractor and replace the clutch, replace the bushings for the clutch shaft and brake shaft. Besides normal condensation, that's how moisture is getting in there.

When I got my 641 the clutch was stuck, I couldn't it busted loose by the usual methods so I pulled the starter and took a big flat bladed screwdriver and bent about the last 2 1/2'' at a 90 degree bend, blocked the clutch pedal down and took that screwdriver and felt around and worked it between the disc and flywheel and the disc and pressure plate and all of a sudden I heard it snap loose and has been good ever since. I was ready to split it but about a half hour of monkeying around with it saved the day.

After you fix it block it down whenever you park it so it won't happen again!
