The adjustment procedure is basically synchronizing the lever throw to the steering valve, then synchronizing the brake application. Pulling a lever (or stepping on a pedal if you have pedal steer) moves the valve, which then dumps the oil going to that clutch, disengaging it. When the engine is running they are pressurized during operation with oil from the transmission oil system, through the steering control valves under the seat. Thank you for confirming it is a 450C, so it has wet steering clutches. Just so you know, this will likely be moved over there when a moderator sees it. Also your 450 model posts belong on the Late Models Board. Good to see you started your own post about this.

If the manual you have is not JD # TM1102, what brand and publication number is it? If the manual you have is not the right one for your crawler, it is possible the adjustment procedure in it may not be right. The adjustment procedures are in the Technical Manual step by step, it is several pages if it is like the 450E manual I have ( I don't have a 450C, so don't have that manual.), more than I want to type out here. The dry clutches are the old pressure plate and throwout bearing arrangement. The wet clutches in a C series are oil applied and when you pull the lever back the oil is dumped and the clutch releases. I'm not trying to give you a hard time, but we have been down that road several times with people saying they have a 450C only to find out it isn't.

What is your entire serial number? Being sure of the series being discussed is critical. I would recommend starting your own post with the info related to your machine rather than tagging on to an old post. Once you know the linkages and adjustments are correct, you can go from there to diagnose your problem, if it still exists. The linkages have been know to get out of alignment with the gates and that has lead to unexpected movement for some. While you are at it adjust the HLR linkage as well. These need to be done in the order given in the technical manual, and done completely, for the systems to work properly. The 450 steering clutches are different than the 450C steering clutches and that has caused confusion in the past.įirst question is do you have the John Deere Technical Manual (TM1102)and Operator's Manual (OMT62743) for your machine? I ask as you need those to guide you through doing the engine clutch and valve adjustments first, then the steering clutch and brake adjustments.

You are 100% sure it is a C with wet clutches? I only ask as the 450s seem to have a habit of turning up with C decals on them because people don't understand the serial number system when they get repainted. I asked some questions when you posted about this last month that the answers to might help people help you.
