Adjustment Procedure
- Measure the clearance between the release bearing housing and the clutch brake.
If the clearance between the bearing housing and the clutch brake is less than 13 mm
(0.5 in) or greater than 14 mm (0.562 in), proceed with the following
procedure in order to adjust the clutch.
- Use the internal adjustment on the clutch in order to move the bearing.
Specification
Set the release bearing to clutch brake clearance
to 13 mm-14 mm (0.5 in-0.562 in).
- Move the bearing clockwise in order to move the bearing toward the transmission.
- Move the bearing counterclockwise in order to move the bearing toward
the engine.
- Push in and turn the Kwik-Adjust® 2 1/3 rotations in order to move
the bearing 3.2 mm (0.125 in).
- Remove the lockstrap and turn in order to positive adjust.
- Remove fork and move the lugs in order to adjust the bearing.
- Put slight tension on the linkage in order to insure that the bearing
is stretched and no movement towards the engine is detected.
- Measure the bearing clearance with a 13 mm (0.5 in) gauge
in order to prevent moving the bearing towards the engine.
- Inspect the release travel.
Specification
13 mm-14 mm (0.5 in-0.562 in)
of release travel.
- Verify the clutch brake setting on vehicles with nonsynchronized transmissions.
- Depress the clutch pedal. Inspect the clutch pedal for the following conditions:
| • | The clutch brake should actuate approximately 1 in from the end
of the pedal stroke. |
| • | The pedal should be 13 mm-25.4 mm (0.5 in-1 in)
from the end of the stroke at the beginning of the clutch brake actuation. |
| 1. | Insert a 0.01 in feeler gage or business card between the release bearing
and the clutch brake. |
| 2. | Depress the clutch pedal and squeeze the card. |
| 3. | Let the pedal up slowly. Stop when the card can be pulled out from between the
release bearing and the clutch brake. The pedal should be 13 mm-25.4 mm
(0.5 in-1 in) from the end of the pedal stroke. |
