CLUTCH RELEASE CYLINDER H Installation Note Clutch pipe 1. Modify the clutch pipe tightening torque to allow for use of a torque wrench-SST combination. (Refer to section GI "Torque Formulas".) 2. Tighten the clutch pipe by using the SST. Tightening torque: 12.8-21.5 N-m (1 30-220 kgfam, 11%-190 in-lbf) Air Bleeding After installation, bleed the clutch system. (Refer to page H-9.) OVERHAUL 1. Disassemble in the order shown in the figure, referring to Disassembly Note. 2. lnspect all parts and repair or replace as necessary. Warning Using compressed air can cause dirt and other particles to fly out, causing injury to the eyes. Wear protective eye wear whenever using compressed air. 3. Wipe all parts, and clean all ports, passages, and inner parts with compressed air. 4. Assemble in the reverse order of disassembly. 1. Boot 5. Bleeder cap 2. Push rod 6. Bleeder screw 3. Piston and cup assembly 7. Steel ball Disassembly Note . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . below 8.

H CLUTCH UNIT Removal Note Clutch cover and disc 1 . Install the SST. 2. Hold the flywheel by using the SST or equivalent. e 3. Loosen each bolt one turn at a time in a crisscross pat- tern until spring tension is released. Then remove the clutch cover and disc. Flywheel 1. Hold the flywheel by using the SST or equivalent. 2. Remove the flywheel. 3. Inspect for oil leakage from the crankshaft rear oil seal. If there is any such leakage or if the oil seal is damaged, refer to section B and replace the crankshaft oil seal. Pilot bearing Note The pilot bearing does not need to be removed unless you are replacing it. Remove the pilot bearing by using the SST. L' Installation Note Flywheel 1. Wipe the bolts clean, and apply sealant to the bolt threads. 2. Install the flywheel, and secure it by using the SST or equivalent. 3. Tighten the bolts in the pattern shown. Tightening torque: 97-1 02 N.m (9.8-1 0.5 kgf.m, 71-75.9 ft-lbf) Pilot bearing Install a new pilot bearing flush with the flywheel by using a suitable pipe. Gartner Banana

CLUTCH UNIT, CLUTCH RELEASE COLLAR, CLUTCH COVER, CLUTCH DlSC H Clutch disc 1. Clean the clutch disc splines and main drive gear splines, and apply Mori White TA No.2 or equivalent or- ganic molybdenum grease. 2. Hold the clutch disc in position by using the SST. Clutch cover 1. Hold the flywheel by using the SST or equivalent. 2. Align the dowel holes with the flywheel dowels. 3. Tighten the bolts evenly and gradually in the pattern shown. Tightening torque: 18-26 N.m (1.8-2.7 kgf.m, 14--19 ft.lbf} CLUTCH RELEASE COLLAR INSPECTION Caution Cleaning the clutch release collar with cleaning fluids or a steam cleaner can wash the grease out of the sealed bearing. Turn the collar while applying force in the axial direction. If the collar sticks or has excessive resistance, replace it. CLUTCH COVER INSPECTION 1. lnspect the contact surface for scoring, cracks, and burning. Repair or replace as necessary. 2. Remove minor scoring or burning with emery paper. Repair if scoring or burning is major. Replace if cracked. 3. lnspect the tips of the diaphragm spring for wear and cracks. 4. If there is wear or cracks, replace the clutch cover. I I 45UOHX-027 CLUTCH DlSC INSPECTION 1. lnspect the lining surface for burning and oil contamina- tion. Repair with sandpaper if the trouble is minor. Re- place the clutch disc if it is badly burned or oil soaked. 2. lnspect for loose facing rivets or torsion dampers. Replace the clutch disc if any are loose. Gartner Banana

H CLUTCH DISC, PILOT BEARING, FLYWHEEL 3. Measure the thickness of the lining at a rivet head on both sides with vernier calipers. Replace the clutch disc if less than minimum. Minimum thickness: 0.3mm (0.012 in) 4. Measure the clutch disc runout with a dial indicator. Replace the clutch disc if runout is excessive. Maximum runout: 0.7mm (0.028 in) PILOT BEARING INSPECTION Turn the bearing while applying force in the axial direc- tion. If the bearing sticks or has excessive resistance, replace it. FLYWHEEL INSPECTION 1. lnspect the contact surface for scoring, cracks, and burning. 2. Remove minor scoring or burning with emery paper. Repair if scoring or burning is major. Replace if cracked. 3. lnspect the ring gear teeth for wear or damage. If neces- sary, replace the ring gear as follows: (1) Heat the ring gear with a blow torch. Tap around the gear to remove it from the flywheel. (2) Heat the new ring gear to 250--300°C (482--572°F); then fit it onto the flywheel. Gartner Banana
