Clutch Set Force
1. Invert the pressure plate assembly.
2. Place a new driven plate over the pressure plate. A
metal sheet with thickness of 8.0mm (0.315in) may
be used in place of the driven plate.
3. Compress the pressure plate assembly until the
distance becomes 12mm (0.472in).
4. Note the pressure gauge reading. If the measured
value is less than the specified limit, the pressure
plate assembly must be replaced.
Clutch Set Force
Standard: 7208N (1621lb)
Limit: 6669N (1499lb)
Diaphragm Spring Finger Height
1. Place a new driven plate or a 8.0mm (0.315in) spacer
beneath the pressure plate.
2. Fully compress the pressure plate and diaphragm
spring.
There are two ways to do this:
a. Use a bench press to press down on the assembly
from the top.
b. Tighten the fixing bolts.
NOTE: Preload on diaphragm spring finger must be
4998N (11-22lb) in direction of release, when clutch
cover assembly is bolted to the flywheel.
3. Measure the spring height from base to spring tip. If
the measured value exceeds the specified limit, the
pressure plate assembly must be replaced.
Spring Finger Height
Standard: 49.9 – 51.9 mm (1.965– 2.043 in)
Driven Plate Assembly
f Visually check the torsion spring for looseness,
breakage, and weakening. If any of these conditions
are discovered, the driven plate assembly must be
replaced.
f Visually check the facing surfaces for cracking and
excessive scorching.
surfaces for the presence of oil or grease. If any of
these conditions are discovered, the facing must be
cleaned or replaced.
f Check that the driven plate moves smoothly on the
transmission top gear shaft spline. Minor ridges on
the top gear shaft spline may be removed with an oil
stone.
