Notice
Refer to Compressed Air Should Not Exceed 98 kPa (14 psi) Notice in Service Precautions.
12. Using a dial indicator, measure the direct clutch piston stroke while applying and releasing 392 kPa (57 psi) of compressed air.
The piston stroke is 0.4 - 0.8 mm (0.016 - 0.031 inch).
^ If the piston stroke is less than the limit of piston stroke, parts may have been assembled incorrectly, so check and reassemble again.
^ If the stroke is non-standard, select another flange.
^ There are 3 flanges in different thickness.
^ The number 1 flange thickness is 3 mm (0.118 inch).
^ The number 2 flange thickness is 3.2 mm (0.126 inch).
^ The number 3 flange thickness is 3.4 mm (0.134 inch).
