UREGENT Heidelberg Clutch Help

I’m having a monster of a week, I have more order to print than I’d normally have an the big girl has given me nothing nut grief.

Problem:

The press was turning over nicely, then froze, with the clutch handle still pulled out. A little push and it turns over slightly then stops again. If the handle is pulled all the way out then she turns over nocely again. but stops once the clutch iss left back on the ”latch” when she sould be going.

I’ve read a few old posts from ‘07 and people suggest the clutch either needs adjusting or replacing.

Any suggestions? Any advice on how to adjust the clutch?

Any help greatly apreciated, especially as the workload is a bit frightening.

Thanks

edit. jesus christ my spelling is fantastic

Fixed.

Removed the cap on the end of the clutch thingie, and the bolt fell loose. Tightened said bolt, replaced cap and hey presto, roberts your fathers brother.
