The methods, steps and precautions for assembling the clutch body are as follows:
(1) Install the release bearing fork assembly, release bearing sleeve and release bearing in situ.
Pay attention to fully lubricate the release bearing before installation, and coat a thin layer of lithium-based grease on the sliding surface between the release bearing sleeve and the bearing seat, the contact surface between the release bearing seat and the release fork, the shaft part of the release fork and its bushing.
(2) Install the engine flywheel and tighten its fixing bolts according to the specified torque, with the tightening torque of 65 Nm. Check the swing of flywheel after installation.
(3) Apply a thin layer of lithium-based grease to the internal spline of the driven disc hub, and then use a special maintenance tool (centering mandrel) to support the clutch driven disc on the center bearing at the rear end of the engine crankshaft, as shown in Figure 10-4, to ensure that the center line of the driven disc hub coincides with the extension line of the engine crankshaft axis, so as to install the transmission assembly smoothly. Install the pressure plate assembly according to the assembly marks made during disassembly, and alternately tighten its fixing bolts 4~5 times in the diagonal direction. Tightening torque is 15 Nm.
Note that when installing the driven disk, one side of its torsional vibration absorber (long tooth hub) should face the direction of the transmission (that is, the direction away from the engine).
(4) Use a special maintenance tool (pressure plate centering mandrel) and a thickness feeler to check the height of the finger end of the diaphragm spring release claw. The height difference between the end faces of each separated melon finger should not be greater than 0.50 mm, otherwise, tools such as thickening flat shovel can be used to pry and correct. During calibration, the number of claws to be calibrated should be minimized.
(5) Install the transmission, main reducer and differential assembly. The tightening torque of the fixing bolt is 35 Nm.
(6) Connect the steel cable, check and adjust the free stroke of the pedal.
