The driver applies or releases pressure on the clutch to move the car a little or to hold the car in one place on a hill. It's called slipping because the clutch plate slips against the flywheel. This is not good for the clutch.

What does it mean if you feel like a clutch slip when shifting but new to bikes so not sure what it is. Only happens when you go to give gass but slightly let off and then bike seems fine?

If you feel a clutch slip when shifting, it typically indicates that the clutch isn't fully engaging, which can happen for a few reasons, such as improper adjustment, worn clutch plates, or low clutch fluid. The slip may occur when you apply throttle after slightly letting off, indicating that the engine's power is overwhelming the clutch's grip. It's important to have the clutch system checked to prevent damage and ensure safe riding. If you're new to bikes, consulting a mechanic or experienced rider is advisable for guidance.

To adjust the slip clutch on a John Deere 506 brush cutter, first ensure the machine is turned off and safely secured. Locate the slip clutch assembly, typically found on the gearbox or drive shaft. Loosen the bolts on the slip clutch to relieve tension, then adjust the spring tension by tightening or loosening the nuts until you achieve the desired slip engagement. Finally, recheck the adjustment by reassembling and testing the cutter under load conditions.
