GENERAL DESCRIPTION AND SYSTEM OPERATION

Driving Members

The driving members consist of two flat surfaces machined to a smooth finish. One of these is the rear face of the engine flywheel, and the other is the pressure plate. The pressure plate is fitted into a steel cover, which is bolted to the flywheel.

Driven Members

The driven member is the clutch disc with a splined hub which is free to slide lengthwise along the splines of the input shaft, but which drives the input shaft through these same splines.
The driving and driven members are held in contact by spring pressure. This pressure is exerted by a diaphragm spring in the pressure plate assembly.

Operating Members

The clutch release system consists of the clutch pedal, the clutch release shaft, the clutch cable, the release arm and the release bearing. When pressure is applied to the clutch pedal, the clutch release shaft pushes against the release bearing by rotating. The bearing then pushes against the diaphragm spring in the pressure plate assembly, thereby releasing the clutch.
