MAINTENANCE & CAR CARE - Clutch & Brake
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.
