   Nice job!   
      
   I noted the price these electric clutches go for many years ago when   
   shopping for a "new" riding mower. Some have decreased since then but I   
   question the quality nowadays...   
      
   I pop mine on once starting out, once more where I have to pass over a   
   rough gravely spot and then off when done (~2.5 hours). I cringe   
   listening to other people mowing with that clutch engaging/disengaging   
   every few minutes and knowing how much they cost😬

   The electric PTO mowing clutch on my heavily used ~1987 Sears GT18 garden   
   tractor needed adjustment (like everything else) when I inherited it but   
   otherwise still works.   
      
   Many of the adjustments are much easier on a lift unless you are a teen or   
   contortionist. The owner lived on an island off the Maine coast, far from   
   Sears service or most other tokens of modern civilization as we know it.
