The 1806 and 582 still use the same clutch as the WFs, essentially, and the spring is not strong enough to put 14+ hp to the ground, IMO. Get a stronger spring and it'll be fine. I have the red spring in my 582, and I use a locking collar behind it instead of the roll pin so I can adjust it. I have it compressed 3/4" instead of 1", giving me about 650 lbs instead of the stock 250-300 lbs, and it's not noticeably harder to push the clutch in. That's what I'd recommend.
