Can anyone assist me. I have an old Westwood T1200 ride on mower with an electromagnetic clutch. I have just changed the belts. How do I adjust the clutch?

Changing the belt will have no effect on the clutch adjustment.

If the clutch is slipping, on older types (triangular in shape), some adjustment cane be made to the 3 bolts holding the assembly together to increase the clamping force, but generally, when they have worn to the extent of requiring adjustment, the're on borrowed time anyway. About £120 to replace.
