CHECKING THE FRICTION PLATES

The following procedure applies to all of the
friction plates.
1. Check:
• Friction plate
Damage/wear → Replace the friction
plates as a set.
2. Measure:
• Friction plate thickness
Out of specification → Replace the fric-
tion plates as a set.
TIP
Measure the friction plate at four places.
Friction plate thickness
2.92–3.08 mm (0.115–0.121 in)
Wear limit
2.82 mm (0.111 in)

CHECKING THE CLUTCH PLATES

The following procedure applies to all of the
clutch plates.
1. Check:
• Clutch plate
Damage → Replace the clutch plates as
a set.
2. Measure:
• Clutch plate warpage
(with a surface plate and thickness gauge
"1")
Out of specification → Replace the clutch
plates as a set.
Warpage limit
0.10 mm (0.0039 in)
3. Measure:
• assembly width "a" of the friction plates
and clutch plates
Out of specification → Adjust.
Assembly width
42.4–43.0 mm (1.67–1.69 in)
TIP
• Perform the thickness measurement without
applying the oil.
• This step should be performed only if the fric-
tion plates and clutch plates were replaced.
• To measure the total width of the friction
plates and clutch plates, combine 9 friction
plates and 8 clutch plates as shown.
