Case 1070

[Pattycakes]

Hello I am very new to the farm world. I was tasked with fixing a case 1070 stuck in second with a bad power clutch. It has been sitting for 5 years. My experience with tractors is zilch. I have worked on plow trucks and dump trucks before. I got the shop manual today. Anyone got any tips about just how to approach the project or experience i am all ears.

(Edit to add: Hello Pattycakes, welcome to YT!) First you should post this on the Case and David Brown forum in the Manufacturers section. Second you need to tell us if it an 8 speed (4 gears and a reverse in a hi and lo range) or a Powershift tractor 4 ranges and 3 Powershift gears and a reverse in each. The Powershift has a short lever closest to you on the right console that stair steps 1-3 with a slot back for reverse. Tractor off or anytime if you shift it to 2 or 3 and push the clutch the lever returns to the 1 position. If it is a Powershift it is probably not the best tractor for you to work on the clutch/transmission being a virgin to tractor repair.
