DESCRIPTION

Either
a

diaphragm
spring
or

coil

spring
type
clutch

is

fitted
to

the
vehicle
The

component
parts
of
the

diaphragm

spring
clutch
are
shown
in

Fig
E
l
and
the

component
parts

of
the
coil

spring
clutch
are
shown
in

Fig

The
clutch
is
of
the

single
dry
plate
type
consisting
of

the
drive

plate
clutch
coveT
and

pressure
plate
and
release

bearing

The
driven

plate
comprises
a

flexible
disc
and

splined
hub

which
slides
on
the

clutch
shaft
Friction
linings
are

rivetted
to

both

sides
of
the
disc

The
clutch
cover

and

pressure
plate
are
combined

by
nine

spring
setting
bolts
The

diaphragm
is
dished
to

maintain
a

constant

pressure
on
the

pressure
plate
which
in
turn
holds

the
driven

plate
in
contact
with
the

flywheel
The
release

bearing

is
a
sealed

type
ball

bearing
mounted
on
a

bearing
sleeve
Both

bearing
and
sleeve
are
operated

by
the
withdrawalleveT
when

the
clutch

pedal
is

operated

The
clutch

pedal
actuates
a
master

cylinder
which
transmits

fluid

under

pressure
to
a
slave

cylinder
The
movement
of

the

slave

cylinder
piston
operates
the
clutch
withdrawal
lever
via

a

push

The

is

most
essential
as
insufficient

clearance
between

can
be

in
the

Bleeding

The

system
must
be
bled
after
it
has
been
dismantled

or
if

any
part
of
the
circuit
has
been

opened
This

operation

should
also

carried
out
if

has

been
allowed
to
fall
and

pennit

The

presence
of
air
in
the

system
may
be
noticed

by

incorrect
disengagement
of
the

but
in
any
case
if
air
is

suspected
the

must

be

DESCRIPTION

Three

types

transmission
are
available

models
covered

by
this
manual
Either
a
three

speed
gearbox

a
four

speed
gearbox
or
three

automatic
transmission

can
be
fitted

The

three
and
four

speed
gearboxes
are

equipped
with

nchromesh
on
all
forward

gears
with
the
three

speed
gearbox

operated
by
a

steering
column

gearchange
system
and
the
four

speed
gearbox
by
a
floor
mounted

gear
lever

Two

types
of

synchromesh
are
used
in
the
four

speed

gearboxes
Either

Borg
Warner
or
Servo

types
may
be
fitted

The

gearboxes
differ

only
in
the

synchromesh
devices

whereby

the
baulk

rings
synchronize
the

coupling
sleeve
with
the
main

shaft

gear
on

the
Warner

gearbox
This
action
is

accomplished

by
