Fig. 354 Adjust the distance between clutch pedal and cowl panel.
Fig.353 Adjust clutch pedal free stroke
The clutch pedal free stroke is the distance between the point where the clutch pedal starts to be depressed the point
where slight resistance is felt. Clutch pedal free stroke should be within 15-30mm and the pedal lever ratio is 5.16.
5. Adjust the distance between clutch pedal and floor (Fig. 354)
When the clutch pedal is depressed to the bottom, the distance between clutch pedal arm and cowl panel should be no
If the clutch is not well maintained, there will be slippage during operation. In order to prevent slippage and ensure normal
work, the clutch plate should be kept clean. During application and maintenance, the clutch plate should be free of oil
contact. Clean the clutch plate with gasoline if it is stained with oil.
Please have regular inspection on the wear condition of the clutch plate lining. Replace the clutch plate when the wear
exceeds working limit. If the plate lining is slippery and hardened, the friction coefficient will go down and affect the normal
torque transfer, therefore, the clutch plate lining should be grinded with sandpaper or replaced if it is not repairable.
During vehicle drive, don’t place your foot on clutch pedal, which may cause the clutch half coupled and lead to clutch plate
slippage, accelerate wear and reduce clutch life.
In order to ensure that the clutch has agile and reliable operation, reduce the abrasion at the cable joint, smear grease on
the moving parts of the cable during vehicle maintenance.

I. Clutch Slippage
Cause
Elimination method
1. Clutch pedal free stroke out of range
2. Clutch friction plate lining wear or oil pollution
3. Defective clutch pressure plate
4. Diaphragm spring failure
5. Operating mechanism stagnation
Adjust free stroke
Replace friction plate assy
Replace pressure plate assy.
Replace pressure plate assy.
Check, correct deformation; eliminate stagnation
