MAINTENANCE & CAR CARE
CLUTCH & BRAKES
CLUTCH :
Your car
is provided with a single plate dry friction diaphragm
type, pre-loaded release bearing clutch which is
mechanically actuated by a cable connecting the clutch
pedal & the clutch release lever.
There is no free play in the system and hence no clutch
pedal free play adjustment is required although the clutch
pedal height from the floor has to be adjusted as clutch
lining wears and operate pedal 4-5 time and confirm no
change in pedal height. The clutch pedal height from the
floor keeps on increasing as the clutch lining wears.
However, ensure that clutch pedal has free movement when
lifted upward.
NOTICE
•
Do not ride the clutch. It will cause premature clutch
wear.
•
Do not release the clutch suddenly.
BRAKES :
Dual circuit, diagonal split hydraulic brakes through tandem
master cylinder have been provided. The front brakes are
disc brakes with floating type calipers while the rear brakes
are drum brakes with automatic adjustment. No adjustments
are required for front & rear brakes. The parking brake is a
mechanical lever type, console mounted, cable operated,
acting on rear wheels. To operate, pull up. To release, pull
the parking brake lever slightly up, press the release button
and push down the lever. Pressure reducing valves are
provided on both circuits for the rear brakes to avoid locking
of wheels & skidding of the car. If parking brake lever travel
is observed to be more than 6th notch, tighten the
adjustment screw so that the parking brake lever stroke is
between 3 to 6 notches. Jack
up the rear wheels and ensure
that the wheels are free to rotate in 6th notch.
