INSTALLATION

In Case of Clutch Cover Reused:

NOTE:
The automatic compensation must be repositioned at its first point.
1.

Clean clutch disc and input shaft splines to remove grease and powder arisen from abrasion.

2.

Apply recommended grease to clutch disc 

 and input shaft 

splines area 

. For recommended grease, refer to 

CL-35, "R9M

: Exploded View"

.

CAUTION:

Be sure to apply grease to the points specified. Otherwise,
noise, poor disengagement, or damage to the clutch may
result. Excessive grease may cause slip or judder. And if it
adheres to seal of CSC, it cause clutch fluid leakage. Wipe
out excess grease. Wipe out any grease oozing from the
parts.

3.

Place the base plate of clutch compression tool [SST:

—

(Emb.1604)] in a vice jaw.

4.

Install clutch cover onto the base plate then install the ball bear-

INSPECTION AFTER REMOVAL

Clutch Disc

• Measure circumferential runout relative to clutch disc center spline.

If it is outside the specification, replace clutch disc.

• Measure backlash to clutch disc spline and input shaft spline at the

circumference of clutch disc. If it is outside the specification,
replace clutch disc.

• Measure the depth (A) to clutch disc facing rivet heads, using a

calipers. If it exceeds the allowable wear limit, replace clutch disc.

Clutch Cover

• Check clutch cover thrust ring for wear or breakage. If wear or breakage is found, replace clutch cover.

NOTE:
• Worn thrust ring will generate a beating noise when tapped at the rivet with a hammer.
• Broken thrust ring will make a clinking sound when cover is shaken up and down.

• If a trace of burn or discoloration is found on the clutch cover pressure plate to clutch disc contact surface,

repair the surface with sandpaper. If surface is damaged or distorted, replace clutch cover.
