DAEWOO M-150 BL2
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
DRIVING MEMBERS
The driving members consist of two flat surfaces ma-
chined to a smooth finish. One of these is the rear face
of the engine flywheel, and the other is the pressure
plate. The pressure plate is fitted into a steel cover,
which is bolted to the flywheel.
DRIVEN MEMBERS
The driven member is the clutch disc with a splined hub
which is free to slide lengthwise along the splines of the
input shaft, but which drives the input shaft through
these same splines.The driving and driven members are held in contact by
spring pressure. This pressure is exerted by a dia-
phragm spring in the pressure plate assembly.
OPERATING MEMBERS
The clutch release system consists of the clutch pedal,
the clutch release shaft, the clutch cable, the release
arm and the release bearing. When pressure is applied
to the clutch pedal, the clutch release shaft pushes
against the release bearing by rotating. The bearing
then pushes against the diaphragm spring in the pres-
sure plate assembly, thereby releasing the clutch.
