The one I have has been repaired at some point. It should work for you though.

I've never adjusted mine, but I'm sure it can be done. @Hruul , @YotaBota, @RobinHood can you shed any light on this?

I have spare clutch parts if you need them.

AFAIK there is no adjustment, you tighten the clutch knob until the carriage or cross slide moves. If it won't tighten up enough then you could put a spacer between the clutch knob and the handle and see if it's any better. If that doesn't work then the clutch plates could be worn out and in need of replacing. They should be to hard to duplicate as I think they're just brass plate.

The pictures show how the gear fits over the clutch plates, next is the clutch plates with the spacer that clamps them tight and the clutch knob that does the tightening.




Hope this helps.

My Norton uses copper and steel and when it slips we took it apart to clean and rough up with emery.
