Section 4 Maintenance and Lubrication

Clutch Assembly and Disassembly

If the clutch run-in procedure, see "Clutch Run-In" on page 20, indicated that one or more of the friction disks did not slip, the clutch must be disassembled to separate the friction discs. Refer to the Parts Section of this manual for a detailed parts breakdown.

Refer to Figure 5-2:

Disassembly of the clutch is simply a matter of first remov- ing the spring retainer nuts (#1), springs (#2) and bolts (#3) from the assembly. Each friction disc (#4) must then be separated from the metal surface adjacent to it. Inspect all parts for excessive wear and condition. Clean all parts that do not require replacement.

Refer to Figure 5-3:

Install new friction discs if needed and reassemble all com- ponents in proper order. Progressively tighten each spring retainer bolt until the spring length is 1.010” to 1.120” for 540 RPM.

Clutch Disassembly

Figure 5-2

The original friction disc thickness is 1/8" (3.2mm) and should be replaced if the thickness falls below 3/64" (1.1mm). If the clutches have been slipped to the point of "smoking", the friction discs may be damaged and should be replaced. Heat build-up may also affect the yoke joints.
