  Note
t  Renew clutch plate and pressure plate if riveted joints are damaged or loose.
t  Renew pressure plate and clutch plate together only.
t  Select clutch plate and pressure plate according to engine code and → Electronic Parts Catalogue (ETKA).
t  Clean input shaft splines and, on used clutch plate, hub splines. Remove corrosion and apply only a very thin coat of clutch plate spline grease -G 000 100- to splines. Then move the clutch plate on the input shaft from side to side, until the hub moves smoothly on the shaft. Excess grease must be removed.
t  Pressure plates are protected against corrosion and greased. Only the contact surface may be cleaned, otherwise the service life of the clutch will be considerably reduced.
t  Pressure plate contact surface and clutch plate lining must make full contact with flywheel. Only then insert bolts.
t  The dowel sleeves for aligning engine and gearbox must be in cylinder block, install if necessary.
t  If the dowel sleeves are not fitted, this will lead to gear-change problems, clutch malfunction and in some cases gearbox noise (gears will make rattling noises).
