Clutch Disc: Testing and Inspection

Checking Clutch Drive Plate For Wear

1. Remove clutch See, Removing and installing clutch.





2. With a depth gauge, measure the distance between the lining surface and the rivet head (dimension x).

NOTE: Only measure on the flanged side of the rivet head.





- The wear dimension x measures 0.3 mm. If a smaller value is measured, the clutch drive plate must be replaced. With a new clutch drive plate, this dimension measures approx. 1.7 mm.

NOTE: It should be noted that the lining wear does not progress in linear fashion during the service life of the clutch. Due to the settling behaviour of the clutch lining, the wear will appear to be greater at the outset However, the wear will become less as the mileage increases.
