ENGINE CLUTCH (1524451
REMOVAL. To remove clutch from engine, the main
transmission must first be removed, as described under the
topic Main Transmission. After the main transmission has
been removed proceed as follows.
1. Loosen the clutch ring mounting screws diagonally
opposite each other a little at a time to relieve the spring
force on the clutch ring rim (see Figure 8-3).
2. Matchmark the engine flywheel, clutch ring, and pres-
sure plate so that they can be reassembled in their original
position. This is important since they are balanced as an
assembly. Matchmark the driven discs on engine flywheel
side to prevent installing them in the reversed position.
DISASSEMBLY. To disassemble the engine clutch,
proceed as follows:
1. Place the clutch assembly, with the ring upward on the
bed of an arbor press. Place a steel bar across the top of the
clutch ring, and press down to relieve spring pressure on the
clutch ring. Remove the locknuts.
