Centrifugal Balance Clutch Description - Mazda Mazda6 Workshop Manual Supplement

CENTRIFUGAL BALANCE CLUTCH DESCRIPTION

Function
• The centrifugal balance clutch, which replaces the conventional piston check ball, cancels centrifugal oil
pressure generated during clutch drum rotation to prevent the clutch drag-engagement and to stabilize piston
pressure during full rotation.
Construction/Operation
• Centrifugal balance clutch chambers are installed opposite the clutch chambers in the low and high clutches.
The centrifugal balance clutch chambers are constantly filled with ATF from the exclusive hydraulic passage of
the oil pump.
