Only Check Position of Adjustment Mechanism with New Pres‐  
sure Plates  
•
Both edges -A- of the adjusting ring must be located between  
both notches -arrows B-.  
•
If the adjusting ring takes on a different position with new pres‐  
sure plates, pressure plate and clutch plate must not be in‐  
stalled.  
•
With used clutches, the adjusting ring may take on a position  
outside of the notches.  
Note  
♦ Replace clutch plates and pressure plates if the rivets are  
damaged or loose.  
♦ Replace the pressure plate and the clutch plate together.  
♦ Allocate the clutch plate and pressure plate to match the en‐  
gine code. Refer to the Parts Catalog.  
♦ To reduce odor caused by a burnt clutch, thoroughly clean the  
clutch housing, the flywheel and the side of the engine facing  
toward the transmission.  
♦ Clean input shaft splines and (on used clutch plates) the hub  
splines, remove corrosion and apply a very thin coating of  
Grease for Clutch Disc Shaft Splines - G 000 100- to the  
splines. Then move the clutch plate back and forth on the input  
shaft until the hub moves freely on the shaft. Remove any ex‐  
cess grease.  
♦ The pressure plates are protected from corrosion and lubrica‐  
ted. Only the running surfaces may be cleaned. Otherwise the  
service life of the clutch will be shortened considerably.  
♦ The pressure plate contact surface and the clutch plate lining  
must completely touch the flywheel. Install the bolts.  
– Move the Flywheel Retainer - 3067- during installation.
