JD L130 blade clutch - adjustment?

On my old Sears GT rider I can switch the blade clutch on and it engages pretty smooth but on the John Deere L130 mower it grabs and janks the whole deck pretty hard, even at a real low motor RPM. So is there an adjustment for this? Thinking it might be a bit easier on the belt and spindles with a softer engagement. But sometimes it's better to leave stuff alone. Never had the old Sears clutch to slip in high grass with the softer start.
