No, only if you reduce the speed so much that the engine can't keep running in the current gear.
If you brake hard, you would clutch.

Why would it be Hard to shift craftsman lawn tractor model 917.270514?

Either the drive belt is not releasing far enough when you press the clutch pedal or the brake is not engaging enough. You will need to see if the belt is still turning when you press the clutch pedal down.


How do you adjust clutch brake?

If your clutch is properly adjusted and your clutch brake doesn't engage, then your clutch brake is worn, and needs to be replaced. If you don't have 1.5 to 2 inches of free play in your clutch (this goes for both pull- and push-type), then you need to make that adjustment first and see if that rectifies the problem.

How does a clutch break work?

If a truck has a clutch brake it would only be used when coming to a complete stop. By pushing the clutch peddle completely to the floor you would apply the clutch brake. This stops the clutch disc from spinning making it easier to shift into 1st or reverse gear. Normal shifting while driving you would not need to or want to push the clutch peddle to the floor to activate the clutch brake.

What is the Spring in the clutch and the brake used for?

For the brake it's pretty obvious. You don't want the brake to stay on when you aren't braking, so you need the spring to push it back. For the clutch it's the same but in reverse. You want the clutch to stay on, except for when you're depressing the lever. The spring keeps the clutch on, until you use the lever to overcome the spring. Then when you release the lever the spring kicks in again, engaging the clutch.


Do you need to use the clutch on motorcycles?

If you do not use the clutch to shift, there are a couple of parts that will eventually wear to the point of causing the transmission to drop out of gear. Given the cost of clutch replacement or gear replacement, you should always use the clutch. Similarly, you should not downshift (with or without the clutch) to slow the vehicle down. Use the brakes. Brake pad replacement is simple and inexpensive on most motorcycles.)
