Removal, check and installation of clutch



Withdrawal
Remove the gearbox in unit with the main gear.
Remove the cover clutch fork.
Remove the release fork assembly.
Remove the clamp clutch release bearing.
Remove the clutch release bearing from the gearbox.

Removing and installing clutch
Fig. 3.11. Removing and installing clutch: 1 - slave cylinder clutch; 2 - a box of gear; 3 - Case forks; 4 - release bearing; 5 - clutch fork; 6 - clutch cover; 7 - the clutch plate; 8 - flywheel


Loosen each bolt at a time, one turn, before easing to a spring.

Removing the clutch cover
Fig. 3.12. Removing the clutch cover


Remove the bolts and clutch cover (Fig. 3.12).

ATTENTION
Keep the clutch disc, the surface of the pressure plate and flywheel from falling on them oil and foreign objects.

Using a special tool, remove the thrust bearing of a primary shaft of a transmission.

NOTE
Do not remove the thrust bearing of the primary shaft of the gearbox, if not replace it.

Install the special tool to hold the flywheel from turning.

Removing the flywheel clutch
Fig. 3.13. Removing the flywheel clutch


Remove the flywheel bolts in the sequence shown in Figure 3.13.

Check
Check the clutch cover.

Measuring the depth of wear of the petals of the diaphragm spring
Fig. 3.14. Measuring the depth of wear of the petals of the diaphragm spring


Using vernier calipers, measure the depth of wear of the petals of the diaphragm spring (Fig. 3.14).
Limits wear depth A: 0.6 mm.

Measuring the gap between the pressure plate and ruler
Fig. 3.15. Measuring the gap between the pressure plate and ruler


Using a ruler and a feeler gauge, measure the gap between the pressure plate and line, as shown in Figure 3.15.
Maximum clearance: 0.5 mm.
Set the dial gauge to the engine block.

Measurement of deviation peaks petals diaphragm spring
Fig. 3.16. Measurement of deviation peaks petals diaphragm spring


Rotate the flywheel, measure the deviation of the vertex of petals of the diaphragm spring (Fig. 3.16).
The maximum deviation from the plane of 0.6 mm.
If the measured value does not meet the established norm, replace the clutch cover.
Check clutch plate.

Measurement of friction linings clutch plate
Fig. 3.17. Measurement of friction linings clutch plate


Using calipers, check the thickness of the friction linings on both sides of the disc clutch release with respect to the rivet heads (Fig. 3.17).
The minimum lining thickness: 0.3 mm.
If the thickness of the lining is less than the minimum, replace the drive.

Check axial runout
Fig. 3.18. Check axial runout


Using a dial indicator, check the disc runout (Fig. 3.18).
Maximum runout: 0.7 mm.
If the runout exceeds the norm, replace the drive.

Checking release bearing
Fig. 3.19. Checking release bearing


Exerting pressure on the axial thrust bearing, turn it (Fig. 3.19).
If the bearing seizes or there is significant resistance to rotation, replace the bearing.

NOTE
Sealed bearings do not require washing or greasing.

Exerting pressure on the axial thrust bearing of a primary shaft gearbox, rotate it.
If the bearing seizes or there is significant resistance to rotation, replace the bearing.

Check flywheel runout
Fig. 3.20. Check flywheel runout


Using a dial indicator, check runout of the flywheel (Fig. 3.20).
Maximum runout: 0.2 mm.
If the runout exceeds the norm, replace a flywheel.

Setting
Install the flywheel on the crankshaft.
If you use the old bolts to remove remnants of the old sealant from the threaded holes for the bolts of the flywheel on the crankshaft and flywheel bolts. Apply sealant to flywheel bolts and install them.

NOTE
If you install a new bolt, do not apply the sealant on it.

Wrap by hand bolts of a flywheel.
Fix a flywheel from turning by using special devices.

Order of a tightening of bolts of fastening of a flywheel
Fig. 3.21. Order of a tightening of bolts of fastening of a flywheel


Tighten the bolts in two or three passes in the sequence shown in Figure 3.21.
Tightening torque: 108-115 Nm.
Using special devices, install a new thrust bearing of a primary shaft of a transmission.

Install clutch plate
Fig. 3.22. Install clutch plate


Install the clutch plate and fix its position with the help of devices for centering disc (3.22).
Install the clutch cover.
Install special devices.

Order of a tightening of bolts of fastening of a press disk
Fig. 3.23. Order of a tightening of bolts of fastening of a press disk


In regular intervals and gradually tighten bolts of a press disk in the sequence shown in the diagram (Fig. 3.23).
The inhaling moment: 18,6-25,5 Nm.
Install the clutch release bearing in the gearbox.
Install clamp clutch release bearing on the bearing.
Apply grease to the contact surface of the clutch and clutch fork, fork and push rod and supports plug.
Apply grease to splines and coupling on the drive shaft splines.
Install the release fork with the release bearing in the gearbox.

NOTE
After installation, move the fork back and forth to check for smooth movement of the release bearing.

Install the cover clutch fork.
Install transmission.
