8.  Apply grease to the threads of the reset spring 

screw (15) and insert the assembly of the reset 

spring screw, reset spring disc (16), reset 

spring (18), and ball thrust (19) through the hole 

stamped 9 on the housing. Tighten the reset 

spring screw until it is flush with the  surface of 

the housing. (See Figure 15)

9.  Fill the entire housing cavity with grease to 

ensure a proper grease packing.

10. Install a return pin spring (34) over each return 

pin (31). Locate the return pin holes in the cover 

by placing the cover over the housing assembly.

11. Once the return pin hole locations have been 

established, insert the return pins and springs 

through the appropriate holes in the cover.

12. Install a snap ring (33) into the groove on the 

end of each return pin (31).

13. Press the cover assembly onto the housing 

assembly. Make sure that the trunnion holes 

and the cover screw holes line up.

14. Install the cover screws (23) and tighten to the 

suggested torques in Table 12.

15. Install the rotor snap ring (38) into the groove of 

the rotor. The unit is now ready for testing.

C.  Torque Verification

1.  Place the clutch in a chuck or vise with the 

cover facing upward.

2.  Insert the appropriate size arbor and key into 

rotor. (See Figure 16)

3.  This step is for manual reset only. Go to next 

step for automatic reset. Install the drive pawl 

(10) into the appropriate hole in the housing 

(1), and the reset pawl (11) into its appropriate 

hole in the housing. Check the fit of the reset 

pawl into the notch of the drive pawl with the 

clutch disengaged. The reset pawl should fit 

approximately one-third of the way into the 

notch. Grinding the nose of the reset pawl may 

be necessary to obtain the proper fit.

4.  The drive pawl (10) and the drive spring (17) will 

have to be installed simultaneously. If a drastic 

change in torque is desired, use this step to 

change the drive spring. Place one end of the 

drive spring over the drive spring thrust washer. 

Insert the knob of the drive pawl into the other 

end of the drive spring. Insert the trunnion of 

the drive pawl into the hardened bushing in 

the housing, while the nose of the drive pawl 

fits into the notch of the rotor (12). Install the 

reset pawl (11) into its appropriate hole in the 

housing. (See Figure 15)

5.  Coat the inside of the housing and all 

components with a quality all-purpose grease. 

A Bentone type, NLGI grade 0 or equivalent 

recommended.

6.  Insert the reset spring disc (16) inside the reset 

spring screw (15). Apply grease to the surface 

of the disc.

7.  If a drastic change in torque is desired, use this 

step to change the reset spring. Place the reset 

spring (18) on the surface of the reset spring 

disc. Apply grease to the end of the ball thrust 

(19) and insert ball thrust into the reset spring.
