Adjusting Levers
While no wear adjustment is needed because of the coil
spring design, it is imperative that the clutch release levers
are each set to exactly the same height at the time of manu
facture or rebuild to insure uniform clutch application. To
obtain exactly the same adjustment at each release lever, use
gauge plate J-1048 and release lever height gauge J-6456 as
follows:
Fig. 12E~Gauge Plate Position (Typical)
1. Place gauge plate J-1048 (fig. 12E) on the flywheel in
position normally occupied by driven plate.
NOTE: It is recommended that a spare flywheel be
obtained so th at this operation may be performed at
the bench.
2.
Bolt cover on flywheel with gauge plate center.
NOTE: On assemblies w ith three levers, the three
fla t machined lands of the gauge plate must be
located directly under the levers. On the larger 13"
clutch w ith four levers, any position is satisfactory.
3.
4.
Depress each lever several times with a hammer handle
to settle all parts into working position.
Position height gauge J-6456 on the hub of the gauge
plate and the bearing surface of one lever (fig. 13E).
Turn adjusting nut until lever is flush with proper step
of height gauge. Adjust remaining levers in same man
ner. The height gauge (insert) has three steps for use
