DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION DESCRIPTION
The clutch unit fitted with the manual transmission,
comprises a single dry plate friction disc and
diaphragm spring clutch unit, secured to the engine
flywheel.OPERATION
The unit is operated hydraulically by the clutch master
cylinder 12 and a slave cylinder 13 attached to the
transmission bell housing.
1. Crankshaft and flywheel
2. Friction plate
3. Clutch cover
4. Diaphragm spring
5. Pressure plate
6. Fulcrum posts (9) for diaphragm spring
7. Bearing rings (2) for diaphragm spring
8. Retraction links and bolts (3) for pressure plate
9. Release bearing
10. Release lever11. Release lever pivot post
12. Master cylinder
13. Slave cylinder
14. Master cylinder pedal pushrod
15. Primary shaft and taper bearing (in gearbox)
16. Gearbox front cover
17. Primary shaft flywheel bush
18. Pedal pivot and return spring
19. Hydraulic damper (Diesel only)

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION When the clutch pedal is depressed, hydraulic fluid
transmits the movement via the slave cylinder, release
lever 10, bearing 9, to the inner fingers of the
diaphragm spring 4.
The diaphragm spring 4 pivots on the bearing rings 7
and fulcrum posts 6 causing the pressure plate 5 to
release the clamping force on the friction plate and
linings 2.As the the clamping force is removed from the friction
plate 2, the plate slides on the splines of the primary
shaft 15 and takes up a neutral position between the
flywheel 1 and the pressure plate 5 , thus breaking the
drive between the engine and the gearbox.
NOTE: Diesel engined vehicles have an
hydraulic damper 19 fitted into the system.
The damper contains a steel diaphragm
which absorbs slight hydraulic pulses caused by
cyclic variations of the diesel engine crankshaft at
low rpm.

FAULT DIAGNOSIS CLUTCH ASSEMBLY CONDITIONS
For the clutch to operate correctly as described and
illustrated in the "Description and Operation", it is
important the following conditions are satisfied:-
A. The primary shaft 15 must be free in the
crankshaft spigot bush 17.
B. The friction plate 2 must be able to slide easily
on the splines on the primary shaft 15, to a
position where it does not contact either the
flywheel or the pressure plate.
C. The friction plate must not be distorted or the
linings contaminated with oil, which may cause it
to stick or continue to run in contact with the
flywheel or pressure plate.
A number of faults can develop in the operation of the
clutch for a variety of reasons and although most
faults are due to normal wear at high mileage,
problems can also occur if the unit has been renewed
by an unskilled operator.
Recognising and diagnosing a particular clutch fault is
therefore of paramount importance in ensuring, that
the problem is rectified at the first attempt.
Problems which develop in the clutch are as follows:-
A. Clutch spin/drag
B. Clutch slip
C. Clutch judder/fierceCLUTCH SPIN - DRAG
Symptoms
Clutch spin is that, with engine running and clutch
pedal depressed, the gears cannot be immediately
engaged without making a grinding noise. This
indicates the clutch is not making a clean break.
However, if the clutch pedal is held depressed for
several seconds the friction plate will eventually break
free from the engine and the gear will engage silently.
Clutch spin as it becomes more severe develops into
clutch drag, making the silent engagement of a gear
impossible, regardless of how long the pedal is held
depressed.
CLUTCH SLIP
Symptoms
Clutch slip is most evident climbing a hill or when the
vehicle is moving off from stationary with a heavy
load. As the clutch is released slip occurs between the
engine and the transmission, allowing the engine
speed to increase without a corresponding increase in
vehicle speed.
Clutch slip can develop to the stage where no power
is transmitted through the clutch as the pedal is
released.
CLUTCH JUDDER - FIERCE
Symptoms
Clutch judder or fierce engagement, like slip, is most
likely to occur when the vehicle is moving off from
stationary. As the clutch pedal is released the vehicle
will move rapidly or in a series of jerks, which can not
be controlled even by careful operation of the clutch
by the driver.
It should be noted that a vehicle may display all the
symptoms or any combination of the symptoms
described, depending on the driving conditions vehicle
load and operating temperatures.

Manual Gearbox
- Noise from gearbox in neutral, which
disappears when clutch is depressed
Noise from clutch or gearbox in neutral, which
changes tone or becomes worse when the clutch
is depressed.
Suspect worn release bearing.
Knocking/rattling from clutch or gearbox in
neutral, which is reduced or disappears when the
clutch is depressed.
Suspect worn/weak release lever retainer or
clutch unit.
Noise from clutch or gearbox in neutral, which
disappears when clutch is depressed.
