Note | t
| Replace clutch plate and pressure disk with damaged or loose riveted unions. |
| t
| To reduce the unpleasant smells of a burnt clutch, the clutch bell-housing must be thoroughly cleaned, along with the flywheel and engine at the side facing the clutch. |
| t
| Renew pressure plate and clutch plate together only. |
| t
| A clutch manufactured by either „Sachs“ or „LuK“ may be installed. |
| t
| Clean the cogs of the input shaft and, if the clutch plates are worn, also the hub cogs; eliminate corrosion and apply a very fine layer of lubricating grease to the cogs → Spare parts catalogue. Then move the clutch plate on the input shaft from side to side, until the hub moves smoothly on the shaft. It is essential to remove excess grease. |
| t
| The pressure disk has anti-corrosion protection and is greased. Only the contact surface must be cleaned; otherwise the working life of the clutch will be considerably reduced. |
| t
| The contact surface of the pressure disk and clutch plate lining must be in total contact with the flywheel. Only then can the securing bolts be inserted. |
| t
| Check whether dowel sleeves for centring the engine/gearbox assembly are fitted in the 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). |
