question Zetor 6211 clutch pedal

[diyfarmer]

I've tried engaging it several times this way, with always the same result. (Of Course)
Mostly been starting with it already engaged if I am using my mower.
This is a great forum, so glad you have it.

Thanks again.

I`m happy you got sorted, glad to help anytime.

It was a bit dangerous doing this and wouldn't be recommended

Does the 6211 have a wet clutch? I can't remember. When my 5211 had clutch problems like that I had to add hydraulic fluid. It was hard to get in there, but it did the trick. Wish I had a photo, but there was a filler tube on the side of the housing for adding fluid.

There is a filler hole on the left side of the clutch housing for adding oil to lubricate clutch release sleeve, 10 drops only is recommended

Yes thats it. I thought I had clutch fingers broken. Its been awhile back and I was a Zetor greenhorn.

we all were greenhorns one time, it just with some models of Zetors, we had to learn fast.

Hi Fellas,
Thanks for the responses.
I have been away the last month or so.
Finally had time to try the hand clutch next to the hand brake.
Actually it is seized. so I cant engage it.
I guess its been out in the weather too long.

I will try messing with it when I get a chance.
Thanks

Well the hand clutch on your model were never easy to pull up at the best of times you really need to be standing over it, from the left side. But if its seized it is a Bowden cable that's probably the problem, I'm not sure where the other end goes, but there is a linkage on the left side, if you get down under the left wheel you'll be able to make it out.

thanks again for the response.
I have been away again and upon returning home for a few days i saw that I needed to mow a bit with my Zetor and brush hog.
So , with no time to work on the hand clutch lever, I proceeded to start the 6211 and mow one of my fields. But now the next problem,,,, I can push in the foot clutch and put the tractor in any gear, but when I release the foot clutch, it does not engage, and the tractor doesnt move.
I then tried to put the tractor in any gear without even pushing in the foot clutch, and I can, no problem... it just wont move.
So it appears, while this thing was sitting for the last couple months, the clutch stopped engaging.
If I had to guess why, I would think maybe it is leaking fluid and now over time it is too low to operate..??
The foot clutch had been working fine after replacing the slave cylinder as you advised me to do.
This thing just seems to have a new problem every time I try to use it. Very frustrating. Any thoughts about my diagnosis?
Thanks

Unfortunately the best advice for any tractor owner is, to keep a tractor in optimum performance they should be started and drove at least once a week especially if not stored indoors.

First check the fluid in the vessel, but you would know by what pressure you feel on the pedal.
But you changed the master cylinder which is the top one didn't you? But there is a slave cylinder lower down, it controls the pushing in and out of the clutch control which used to be manually on the older models, so check that

6341 Clutch Slave Cylinder
Started at Fri Feb 16 19:57:10 2018
Has anyone done a work-around for the clutch slave cylinder? It's nickel and diming me to death. This will be the third cylinder and there's only 2200 hours on this rig...and they're around $100 a pop.

From Texas, USA --- 2006 Zetor 6341 Super with Loader.

There's a post from earlier this year a man in America who has a newer version of your tractor, who is having constant problems with the slave cylinder.

You may be in the same boat.
