7C1-2 CLUTCH
The clutch is a diaphragm-spring clutch of a dry single
disc type. The diaphragm spring is of a tapering-finger
type, which is a solid ring in the outer diameter part,
with a series of tapered fingers pointing inward.
The disc, carrying torsional coil springs, is positioned
on the transmission input shaft with an involute spline
fit.
The clutch cover is secured to the flywheel, and car-
ries the diaphragm spring in such a way that the pe-
ripheral edge part of the spring pushes on the pres-
sure plate against the flywheel (with the disc in be-
tween), when the clutch release bearing is held back.
This is the engaged condition of the clutch.Depressing the clutch pedal causes the release bear-
ing to advance and pushes on the tips of the tapered
fingers of the diaphragm spring. When this happens,
the diaphragm spring pulls the pressure plate away
from the flywheel, thereby interrupting the flow of
drive from flywheel through clutch disc to transmis-
sion input shaft.

INSTALLATION
1) To bleed air from master cylinder itself, tilt it as shown in figure
and add fluid into it.
NOTE:
After bleeding air from master cylinder, plug pipe hole in it
to prevent fluid from spilling out of it till pipe is connected.
2) Install master cylinder assembly and new gasket to body, attach-
ing bolt, nuts and push rod clevis pin.
NOTE:
Do not reuse gasket.
3) Torque attaching bolt and nut to specification.
4) Connect fluid pipe and torque flare nut to specification.

5) Apply grease to clevis pin and install it.
ªAº: Grease 99000-25010
6) Fill reservoir with specified brake fluid and check fluid leakage.
7) After installation, bleed air from system and check clutch pedal
free travel. Refer to BRAKE section for air bleeding procedure.
FLUID INSPECTION
Fluid level should be always between MIN and MAX lines on reser-
voir. If fluid decreases quickly, check for leakage, repair leaky point,
if any, and add fluid up to MAX level.
NOTE:

Brake fluid damages painted surface badly. Should it get on
painted surface, remove it immediately and clean surface
thoroughly.

Do not use shock absorber fluid or any other fluid which con-
tains mineral oil. Do not use container which has been used
for mineral oil or which is wet from water. Mineral oil will
cause swelling and distortion of rubber parts in hydraulic
clutch system and water will mix with brake fluid, lowering
fluid boiling point. Keep all fluid containers capped to pre-
vent contamination.

Make sure not to use fluid whose container cap was first
opened more than a year ago.
