Clutch release mechanical control – operation

The engagement/release of the dry, single plate type clutch takes place through the action of the thrust bearing sleeve which, pressed against the pressure plate spring, discharges the pressure and allows the detachment of the clutch plate from the

flywheel. When the linkage is released, the action of the pressure plate spring returns the clutch plate in contact with the flywheel.

The movement of the linkage is controlled, via a cylinder, by the hydraulic actuator fitted on the gearbox casing. The operation of the actuator is managed by the Selespeed control unit [ 2127A"
