INPUT CLUTCHES
DESCRIPTION
Three multi-plate input clutches (1, 2, 5) (Fig. 79),
the front, middle and rear multi-plate clutches K1
(1), K2 (2), and K3 (5), are located in the planetary
gear sets in the transmission housing.
A multi-plate input clutch consists of a number of
internally toothed discs (4) on an internally toothed
disc carrier and externally toothed discs (3) on an
externally toothed disc carrier.

OPERATION
The input clutches (Fig. 80) produce a non-positive
locking connection between two elements of a plane-
tary gear set or between one element from each of
two planetary gear sets in order to transmit the drive
torque.
If the piston (20) on multi-plate clutch K1 (1) is
subjected to oil pressure, it presses the internal and
external discs of the disc set together. The sun gear
(17) is locked with the planetary carrier (15) via the
externally toothed disc carrier (19) and the internally
toothed disc carrier (18). The front planetary gear set
is thus locked and turns as a closed unit.
If the multi-plate clutch K2 (2) is actuated via the
piston (14), the piston compresses the disc set. The
annulus gear (16) of the front planetary gear set is
locked with the annulus gear (11) of the center plan-
etary gear set via the externally toothed disc carrier(13) and the center planetary carrier (10) on which
the internally toothed discs are seated. Annulus gear
(16) and annulus gear (11) turn at the same speed as
the input shaft (21)
If the multi-plate clutch K3 (5) is actuated via the
piston (7), the piston compresses the disc set. The
sun gear (12) of the center planetary gear set is
locked with the sun gear (9) of the rear planetary
gear set via the externally toothed disc carrier (6)
and the internally toothed disc carrier (8). Sun gear
(12) and sun gear (9) turn at the same speed.

DISASSEMBLY
(1) Remove snap-ring (11) (Fig. 81) from outer
multiple-disc carrier (6).
(2) Take multiple-disc pack (12) out of outer mul-
tiple-disc carrier (6). Note which clutch disc is
removed just prior to the spring plate (8) for re-as-
sembly. If the clutch discs are re-used, this disc must
be returned to its original position on top of the
spring plate.

(3) Place Multi-use Spring Compressor 8900 (2)
(Fig. 82) on the spring plate and compress the spring
until the snap-ring (1) is exposed.
(4) Remove snap-ring (1).
(5) Take out disc spring (7) and remove piston (6)
by carefully blowing compressed air into the drilled
oil feed passage.
(6) Remove snap-ring (3) and take out front free-
wheeling clutch F1 (2). Take care when removing the
F1 clutch to prevent the clutch sprags from falling
out. If this occurs, the clutch must be replaced.
