Operation
On the conventional clutch, the pedal force tends
to increase in proportion to the degree of disc
run-out. However, the SATIC clutch has the
adjusting function which activates the cassette
system inserted to the clutch cover to maintain a
constant pedal force and clearance when the
disc runs out. (Unlike SAT type, SATIC type
does not need SST for clutch cover removal.)
Diaphragm spring rotates the adjusting
equipment as clutch disc is wearing and so,
pressure plate is pushed to clutch disc side at the
amount of wear.
