cat 22 clutch brake adjustment

From what I remember from when I had my 22 split apart last year (to fix a stuck clutch) their is supposed to be a 1/8" gap for the clutch brake. You need to remove the cover that is under the gas tank and check. It is possible that the linings are wore out and you have no adjustment left, but you will see when you have the cover off. I believe that their is a set screw that you have to loosen to adjust the clutch brake. If the linings are gone you will need to split the tractor and have it re-lined.
Hope this sorta helps

I am in the process of assembling my CAT 22, 2F5209. I had the clutch brake re-lined, and have now installed it on the transmission input shaft. There are two 3/8" bolts that hold the brake to the collar on the input shaft. There are several sets of holes arranged axially around the brake. To adjust the brake you will need to remove the cover under the gas tank, remove the two retaining bolts, and move the brake to the next set of holes (which adjusts the clearance) and replace the bolts. I believe that a clearance of 1/8" is correct for the adjustment. When I disassembled my unit I found that the two bolts were missing. Don't know where they ended up, not in the bottom of the transmission casing. Hope this helps. Ray

Welcome on Board dshil . There are 2 types of clutch brakes on the Twenty Two 2F1 to 1J37 is one type and 1J38 to 1J5157 is another .The later one has a slit Brake for easy removal [2 piece] and has 2 Bolts to Remove it [A "C" or offset Socket is a big Help ] the 2 Halves have Locating Pins in them and the Spacer
[3B8205 ] has 2 sets of offset Holes giving I think it is 6 Adjustments .The earlier Brake is easly adusted by undoing the 2 Studs and rotating brake toward clutch a hole and replacing Studs . If however the Brake pad is Worn out , Sorry , you need to split tractor to Replace . Unless you are Hudini , I would take fuel tank off to do the Job . As previously stated about 1/8 gap is needed . Good luck and tell us how You get on LJ

Thanks for the replies. The more information, the more help it is.
Kind of a spur of the moment post since I was out in the shed with the CAT yesterday.
Just madee we wonder if youu can really adjust it under the gas tank.
Best advice is to remove the gas tank.
I had planned on it since I have left it dry for years and ran it with an external tank to get all the fumes out in preparation of doing some welding to it.
Good timing to adjust the brake or discover if it is going ot need relining.
Thanks again.
Please post more info. Always helps.
