dt1990 4 #1 Posted March 23, 2021 I just purchased an automatic 12. With a kohler 12 hp k301 motor. Model # 1 0465 8 Ser # 957156. The previous owner removed the electric clutch and took it apart. I believe it has a short in the windings and does not work. I've been looking for parts but am not having much luck. Is there an aftermarket clutch that will work? I know it is an 1 1/8 shaft and 5 1/4 2 belt pulley. Just wondering if anyone found another brand that fits or modified something to work. I assume its just a regular 12v clutch, when the switch is engaged it energizes the magnetic coil engaging the clutch? The mowers in really decent shape for its age other than that so it would be awesome to get it fixed up. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
oliver2-44 8,836 #2 Posted March 23, 2021 Post a picture of the clutch parts. i have some electric clutch coils/parts from some other brand tractors. I've never seen a WH electric clutch close up, but maybe, just maybe one of the coils i have could work with your clutch parts. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
paxz71usa 172 #3 Posted March 23, 2021 Hey dt1990. . Couple of things you can try. There is a classified section on Red Square. Try posting there for a used clutch. There are some still around. I also have a 12 automatic and when I bought the tractor I had the same problem with the clutch. A member here fixed me up with a used clutch and I've been good to go. After I got my used clutch I did some checking around and found an electric motor repair shop that wound make a new winding for my old clutch so I had it repaired as a backup. It was spendy though. Hope this helps. Gary 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

daveoman1966 3,586 #5 Posted March 23, 2021 (edited) I have worked on a bunch of the electric PTO and can provide some component pics here. The coil can be saved if the lead wires are broken at the field housing...very common... About a year ago, I stumbled on a method to re-wire the field but, dummy me, failed to copy the video to do it. It can be done however... NOTE...Do NOT use any type of gear or hub puller to remove the E-PTO from the crankshaft. Use ONLY the long bolt as shown in the last pic. Anyway..some pics: Edited March 23, 2021 by daveoman1966 2 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

IMO this is the best PTO clutch system WH made. I never liked the instant on/off of the electric clutch. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pfrederi 17,129 #8 Posted March 23, 2021 Best solution and cheaper than getting another used electric that usually goes for well over $100 on Ebay 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dt1990 4 #9 Posted March 23, 2021 Has anyone done the manual conversion using the old clutch parts? Industrial maintenance man by day, probably have enough junk lying around to put something together. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dt1990 4 #14 Posted March 27, 2021 May have found a manual pto to covert over on ebay. Not a complete set up but the pulley and clutch is they're. Anyone have some detailed pictures of a raider 10 manual set up. Planning on fabricating the lever and catch if I can. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dt1990 4 #17 Posted April 6, 2021 Got the Manual pto installed and works great, even threw the mower deck and and gave it a test run. Did find that the pulley that redirects the belt down to the deck was locked up, but some pb blaster and persuasion with a pipe wrench freed it right up. Pictures to follow. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
