Clutch Issue

When the clutch engages you can feel it flutter or vibrate the pedal, once compressed down all the way a squealing sound starts, like a loose belt, it's also somewhat dificult to shift into gear when I start in first. If anyone else had this problem or can tell me if its just a adjustment or if the clutch might need replacing. Thanks much

you the first owner? has it been beat on? sounds like hot spots/glazing . if it's catching up high near end of travel it's close to done probably . does it slip? there is no adjustment i know of since it's hydro all the way . i'd bring it to a knowledgeable mini shop you can trust and have them drive it .if you catch it early you may not need a flywheel .
