Moti Report post Posted March 28, 2023 Hello everyone, does the Adler 269-73 have a clutch? The manual says something really brief about it, but it doesn't say where or how to disable it so my question is where is the clutch on this machine Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Uwe Report post Posted March 28, 2023 (edited) If it does have the safety clutch (which is likely) it looks like the diagram shown below. The arrow points to one of two adjustment screws, labeled “w”. The “w/18” in your post means “look for the thing labeled ‘w’ in diagram number 18 at the end of the manual” I suppose you could disable the clutch by tightening the adjustment screws all the way, but I’m not sure why you would want to do that.

Moti Report post Posted March 29, 2023 (edited) First of all thank you very much for answering me, and your videos on YouTube helped me very very much, so thank you for that, and in some cases the manual says that the clutch should be deactivated, Edited March 29, 2023 by Moti Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
