More specifically, #27 seals the brass end #7 to the body of #11. #24 goes around the piston #9 and seals that to the inner bore of #11. And thanks for the offer of the manual, I've sent an email.

#24 and #27 are different. #27 seals the brass threaded end to the bore of the cylinder. #24 goes around the piston. It is the two #24's that concern me.

Any experts out there that could answer a couple questions regarding the Variable Speed on my old Bobcat? I started leaking oil all over the belt and frame, and am assuming it is coming from the drive clutch. I pulled it apart, and other than the O-Rings being a bit hard, I'm not seeing any...

Did they ever have one that fit the M444? If not, what options do I have for retrofit? Thanks in advance!!!
