I don't have a 982, so I don't know if the clutch is exactly the same as the ones used on the Kohlers, but it is probably close. All of these come off the same way. Take off the 3 nuts with the round plate and the springs behind it, pull that off, and use an electric impact wrench to remove the bolt in the end of the crank. Most of the parts slide off at this point. Then simply remove the 4 or so bolts holding the backing plate on, and you're all set. Much easier than a mechanical PTO. Don't forget to disconnect the wire first...
