CLUTCH FREE-PLAY ADJUSTMENT
Mechanical Transmission
FIG. 6-36 & 6-37:
Check clutch pedal free-play regularly
and adjust as necessary. Correct clutch pedal free-play
A is 20 to 30 mm (7/8”) when measured at the end of the
pedal (1) as shown.
NOTE: Through use, clutch free-play will be reduced.
IMPORTANT: Correct free-play must be maintained to
reduce wear on the clutch and release
bearing, and allow complete disengage-
ment when the pedal is depressed.
To adjust clutch pedal free-play, locate the linkage under
the left foot step, and loosen the lock nut (2). Adjust the
turnbuckle (3) on the linkage until free-play is correct.
Lengthening the linkage will increase free-play, shorten-
ing the linkage will reduce free-play.
