INSPECTION AND REPAIR
Make the necessary adjustments, repairs, and part replacements if excessive wear or damage is discovered during
inspection.
PRESSURE PLATE ASSEMBLY
Visually inspect the pressure plate friction surface for
excessive wear and heat cracks.
If excessive wear or deep heat cracks are present, the
pressure plate must be replaced.
Pressure Plate Warpage
Use a straight edge and a feeler gauge to measure the
pressure plate friction surface flatness in four directions.
If any of the measured values exceed the specified limit, the
pressure plate must be replaced.
Pressure Plate Warpage mm(in)
Limit
0.3 (0.012)
Clutch Cover
Visually inspect the entire clutch cover for excessive wear,
cracking , and other damage.
The clutch cover must be replaced if any of these conditions
are present.
1. Abrasion, scratches, cracks and deflection of friction face to
the disc, loose rivet and wear of ring
Grind small scratches, or replace the assembly if extreme
scratches are found.

Clutch Set Force
1. Invert the pressure plate assembly.
2. Place a metal sheet “A” on the pressure plate.
3. Compress the pressure plate assembly until the distance
“B” becomes specified.

Diaphragm Spring Finger Height
1. Place a new driven plate or the appropriate spacer beneath
the pressure plate.
2. Fully compress the pressure plate and diaphragm spring.
There are two ways to do this.
Use a bench press to press down on the assembly from the
top.
Tighten the fixing bolts.
NOTE: Preload on diaphragm spring finger must be 49 - 98 N
(11 - 22 lb) in direction of release, when clutch cover assembly
is bolted to the flywheel.

3. Measure the spring height from base to spring tip "H". If the
measured value exceeds the specified limit, the pressure
plate assembly must be replaced.
