Note:
• | Apply ATF to the new O-ring. |
• | Be careful not to twist or misalign the O-ring when inserting the low clutch piston. |
- Replace the O-rings (1, 2) with new ones, then install them to the low clutch piston (3).
- Install the low clutch piston to the low clutch drum (4).
Note: Be careful not to distort the cancel cover when pressing it into position using DT-47524 low clutch spring compressor.
Note:
• | Ensure that the circlip fits snugly into the drum groove. |
• | Ensure that the circlip opening is not aligned with the stopper. |
• | Ensure that the circlip opening is aligned with the concave aperture. |
- Install the return spring (3) and the cancel cover (2).
- Press the cancel cover using DT-47524 low clutch spring compressor (4) and install the circlip (1).
Note: Before using a new low clutch plate set, soak it in ATF for more than 2 hours.
Note: Note the direction of the cushion plate.
- Assemble with the cushion plate periphery touching the low clutch.
- Install the cushion plate (5), 7 separator plates (4), 7 friction plates (3) and the retaining plate (2) to the low clutch drum (6).
- Install the snap ring (1).
- Using a thickness gauge (1), measure the clearance between the circlip (2) and the retaining plate (3).
Clearance Specification
• | Specification standard is 0.8--1.1 mm (0.03--0.04 in). |
• | Specification application limit is 1.3 mm (0.05 in). |
- If the application limit is exceeded, replace the friction plates (2) and the separator plates (3) with new ones, and select a suitable retaining plate (1) so that the specified clearance will be obtained.
- If the clearance is less than the application limit, select a suitable retaining plate so that the clearance will fall within the desired range.
Note: Close the other holes when blowing air using an air gun (1).
- Blow air into the oil inlet of low clutch drum (2) and check the functioning of the piston.
