Clean input shaft splines and (in the case of used clutch plates) the hub splines. Remove corrosion and apply only a very thin coating of grease for
clutch plate splines G000100 to the splines. Then move clutch plate backwards and forwards on input shaft until hub moves freely on shaft. It is
important to remove excess grease.

Pressure plates have an anti-corrosion coating and are greased. Only the contact surface may be cleaned, otherwise the service life of the clutch
will be considerably reduced.

If the clutch has burnt out, thoroughly clean the bell housing, flywheel and parts of the engine facing the transmission in order to prevent odors.
