CLUTCH SHOES
Inspect the clutch shoes for chips, cracks, uneven wear, and
heat discoloration. Also, check the depth of the grooves on the
clutch shoes. If there is no groove at any part of the shoes,
replace the shoes as a set.
NOTE:
The clutch shoes must always be changed as a set.
CLUTCH WHEEL
Inspect the condition of the inner clutch wheel surface for scuffs,
scratches, cracks or uneven wear. If any damages are found,
replace the clutch wheel with a new one.

Put the one-way clutch onto the clutch wheel and install the
clutch shoe assembly. Rotate the clutch shoe assembly by hand

never turns to the opposite direction. If the shoe assembly turns
to both directions or is locked, replace the one-way clutch with a
new one.
