    Are you sure it has a dry clutch ford bo? I have 2 7740s 94s and they both have wet clutches. What happens to mine is the spirng sometimes breaks that holds the pedal the pedal up and you have to pull it up with your foot which is a pia. Quick fix if thats all thats wrong with yours, but maybe some have dry clutches. I,m no expert!

    Kk man I am no expert either but I look behind the clutch and I see it seperated the wire is cut I don't know is it dry or wet but the spring is fine I think. .. but it is a pain and it is making the tractor rough to drive hope some one can tell me is it a big job to change it or can I do it hope someone can tell me ..

    Some cars are a nightmare to change so dunno bout tractors but here goes
    Back of clutch pedal find where it's broken and follow the wire out of inside to engine bay towards gearbox
    Along the way the clutch cable will be held on by two or 3 bolts unscrew these and follow the cable down To gearbox bell housing and remove any bolts necessary
    Take note of what you take out and to put new one in do the opposite
    Sorry cant be much more help I'm car mechanic never worked on tractors
    But most engines and clutches are based alike

    There is a cylinder behind the clutch and most likely the spring is gone in this you can get a repair kit for about 50euro simple DIY job

    I think if you need a diagram to change a clutch cable, you might be better getting someone to help that is in some ways mechanical minded.
