INSPECTION
CLUTCH COVER
(1) Check the pressure plate surface for wear, cracks or
discoloration.
(2) Check the strap plate rivet for looseness. If loose, replace
the clutch cover.
CLUTCH DISC
Caution
Do not wash the clutch disc with cleaning oil.
(1) Check the facing for decomposition caused by rivet
looseness, single-side contact or seizure, and check for
the presence of grease. If any fault is found, replace
the clutch disc.
(2) Measure the rivet sinking level, and replace the clutch
disc if the limit is exceeded.
Limit value: 0.3 mm
(3) Check the torsion spring for play and breakage. If faulty,
replace the clutch disc.
(4) Set the clutch disc onto the input shaft, and check the
sliding state and for play in the rotation direction. If the
sliding state is poor, wash the disc, reassemble and then
check the state again. If there is extreme play, replace
the clutch disc or input shaft or both parts.
CLUTCH RELEASE BEARING
Caution
Grease is filled in the release bearing, so do not wash with
washing oil.
(1) Check the bearing for seizure, damage, abnormal noise
or improper rotation.
(2) Check that the pull ring of the release bearing is not
worn.
(3) If the surface where the bearing contacts the release
fork is abnormally worn, replace the bearing.
RELEASE FORK AND RELEASE FORK SHAFT
(1) If the surface where the release fork contacts the bearing
is abnormally worn, replace the release fork.
(2) Check the release fork shaft for bending and wear. If
any abnormality is found, replace the release fork shaft.

INSEPCTION
RELEASE CYLINDER
(1) Check the inner surface of the release cylinder for rust
and damage.
(2) Using a cylinder gauge, measure the inner diameter of
the release cylinder at approx. three positions (deepest
section, middle, opening). If the clearance with the outer
diameter of the piston exceeds the limit value, replace
the release cylinder assembly.
Limit value: 0.15 mm
