1. FUNCTION AND OVERVIEW
1) SAT (Self Adjusting Technology) Clutch System
Internal Components of Clutch Cover
2) Overview
▶ Driving Elements
The driving elements consist of two flat surfaces machined to a smooth finish.
One of these is the rear face of the engine flywheel and the other is the clutch pressure
plate. The clutch pressure plate is fitted into a clutch steel cover, which is bolted to the
flywheel.
▶ Driven Elements
The driven element is the clutch disc with a splined hub which is free to slide lengthwise
along the splines of the input shaft.
The driving and driven elements are held in contact by spring pressure. This pressure is
exerted by a diaphragm spring in the clutch cover pressure plate assembly.
Operating Elements
▶
The clutch "release" system consists of the clutch pedal and clutch release cylinder.
This system directly releases the clutch by using hydraulic pressure while the conventional
clutch system releases the clutch by using release lever and release fork. This system
provides higher efficiency than conventional clutch system, and its durability is superior.
1) Clutch master cylinder (mounted on clutch pedal)
2) Concentric slave cylinder pipe (mounted inside of transmission)
