Inspection
Brake discs
Dry and inspect them for pitting, burn flaking, significant 
wear, glazing, cracking, charring and chips or metal 
particles imbedded in lining.
If discs show any of the ab ove conditions, replacement 
is required.
NOTE
• If disc lining is exfoliated or discolored,  replace all discs.
• Before assembling new discs, soak them  in A/T fluid for at least two hours.
 
Brake separator plates and retaining plates
Dry plates and check for discol oration. If plate surface is 
smooth and even color smear is indicated, plate should 
be reused. If severe heat spot discoloration or surface 
scuffing is indicated, plate must be replaced.
Brake return spring subassembly
Measure free length of each brake return spring 
subassembly.
Evidence of extreme heat or burning in the area of clutch 
may have caused springs to take heat set and would 
require their replacement.
Free length of 1st & reverse brake return spring 
subassembly
“a”: 21.71 mm (0.855 in.)
Free length of 2nd brake return spring subassembly
“a”: 15.85 mm (0.624 in.)
NOTE
• Do not apply excessive force when  measuring spring free length.
• Perform measurement at several points.

Automatic Transaxle Unit AssemblyS7RS0B5106060
CAUTION! 
• Automatic transaxle consists of highly precise parts. As even flaw in small part 
may cause oil leakage or decrease in 
function, check each part carefully before 
installation.
• Clean all parts with compressed air. Never  use wiping cloths or rags.
• Before assembling new clutch or brake  discs, soak them in automatic transaxle 
fluid for at least 2 hours.
• Be sure to use new gaskets and O-rings.
• Lubricate O-rings with  automatic transaxle 
fluid.
• Apply automatic transaxle fluid on sliding  or rotating surfaces of the parts before 
assembly.
• Use Suzuki Super Grease “C” to retain  parts in place.
• Be sure to install thrust bearings and races  in correct direction and position.
• Make sure that snap ring ends are not  aligned with one of cut outs and are 
installed in groove correctly.
• Do not use adhesive cements on gaskets  and similar parts.
• Be sure to torque each bolt and nut to  specification.

Clutch
General Description
Clutch ConstructionS7RS0B5301001
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 four torsional coil springs, is positione d on the transaxle input shaft with an involute spline fit.
The clutch cover is secured to the flywheel, and carries the diaphragm spring in such a way that the peripheral edge 
part of the spring pushes on the pressure  plate against the flywheel (with the disc in between), when the clutch release 
bearing is held back. This is the engaged condition of the clutch.
Depressing the clutch pedal c auses the release bearing to advance and pushes on the tips of the tapered fingers of 
the diaphragm spring. When this happens, the diaphragm sp ring pulls the pressure plate away from the flywheel, 
thereby interrupting the flow of drive from flywheel through  clutch disc to transaxle input shaft. Clutch fluid is supplied 
from brake fluid reservoir. Clutch fluid level can be  checked by brake fluid level of brake fluid reservoir.
