Correct any deviation in installed clearance D by installing outer
plates of correct thickness.
Remove all parts from the housing and install with additional parts:
thrust washers (2), plate springs (3) and lug discs (4). Mount case
cover (12) and press on firmly, but do not bolt.
The preload on the small plate spring (3) should create an even
gap all round (check with feeler gauge).
If there is no gap between cover and housing, check plate springs
(3), thrust washers (2) and lug discs (4).
Installation:
Thrust washer (2), with oil pockets facing the housing
(downwards).
Diaphragm spring (3) with inside curved surface facing differential
shaft (up).
The smooth side of the lug disc (4) faces the plate spring
(downwards), the lug engages in the guide in the housing.
Install spacer disc (5), plate spring (6) with internal bulge facing
differential shaft, outer disc (7) with the 4 lugs, then insert
