Warnings and Cautions

Repair Warnings

The major cause of clutch failure is excessive heat. Excessive

heat generated between the flywheel, driven discs, intermedi-

ate plate and pressure plate can cause the metal to flow and

the material to be destroyed. If this occurs, the clutch can

burst which can cause property damage, serious bodily injury

or death. In order to prevent clutch failure resulting from

excessive heat:

1. Do not exceed recommended vehicle loads.

2. The clutch should only be used for the recom-

mended applications.

3. Drivers should be properly trained in starting, shift-

ing and operation of the clutch.

4. Drivers should report erratic clutch operation as

soon as possible to permit maintenance personnel to

inspect, adjust or lubricate as required.

5. Mechanics must be familiar with proper clutch

adjustment, linkage adjustment, lubrication and

other maintenance troubleshooting procedures out-

lined in the Failure Analysis Guide.

When disassembling various assemblies, lay all parts on a

clean bench in the same sequence as removed to simplify and

reduce the possibility of losing parts.

Since the cost of a new part is generally a small fraction of the

cost of downtime and labor, avoid reusing a questionable part

that could lead to additional repairs and expense.

Use of other than recommended tools, parts, and instructions

listed in this manual may place the safety of the service tech-

nician or vehicle driver in jeopardy.

The removal and installation procedure described for each

component may vary for your vehicle.

For Solo and Heavy-Duty ECA clutches only, install shipping

bolts before removing clutch assembly from the flywheel.

Install Transmission

Check Transmission for Wear

Replace any worn components.

IMPORTANT

Do not add lube (never seize

or grease) to the input shaft

splines. The discs must be

free to move.

Note: Adjust the linkage until pushing

the pedal down moves the bearing

against the clutch brake. Let up on the

pedal and measure the distance

between the bearing and clutch brake

(distance shou

ld be 0.490"-0.560").

Input Shaft Splines

Any wear on the splines will

prevent the driven discs from

sliding freely, causing poor

clutch release (clutch drag).

Slide discs full length of shaft to

check for twisted shaft splines.

Clutch Brake

Replace.

Cross Shaft and Bushings

Excess

ive wear at these points can cause

side loading on the sleeve bushing,

bushing failures and yoke bridge contact

with the clutch when the pedal is down.

Measure Input Shaft

Length should be 8.657" (219.89 mm) nominal, and not

greater than 8.71" (221.23 mm). Ref. 1990 SAE

handbook 4:36.106. Replace transmission bearing

retainer cap if length is greater than 8.71" (219.89 mm).

Transmission Bearing

Retainer Cap

A worn/rough bearing

retainer cap may cause

the clutch brake to wear

prematurely.

Release Yoke

Worn fingers can

cause bushing wear

and yoke interference

when the pedal is down.

Input Shaft

Wear (roughness) can

r

educe sleeve bushing life

and cause it to come out.

Input Shaft Spigot

Wear will not provide proper

interface with the inner race of

the pilot bearing. This can

result in damage to the clutch

or the pilot bearing.

CAUTION

Do not use the cross-shaft release lever (or

a pipe over it) to pull the transmission into

its final position. Pulling the bearing too far

during installation can cause an overstroke

causing the release bearing to move closer

to the transmission (less than

0.490") with

this condition. Follow the Out of Vehicle

Resetting Procedure on page 1.

Do not let the transmission drop or hang

unsupported in the driven discs. This can

bend the discs and the clutch will not release

causing damage that is not warrantable.

Do not excessively force the transmissio

n

into the clutch assembly or engine

housing. This will cause damage to the

splines of the rear disc hub that is not

warrantable. If the discs do not slide freely

in the input shaft, investigate the cause of

the problem and make any necessary

changes. If the discs do not slide freely, the

cl

utch will not release and the transmission

will grind going into gear.

Fasten Transmission to Flywheel Housing

1

Put transmission in gear.

Make sure new clutch

brake has been installed.

3

Position transmission so

it is square to and

aligned with engine.

4

Mesh splines by moving

Do not let the transmission

drop or hang unsupported in

the driven discs. This can cause

the discs to become distorted

and the clutch to not release.

WARNING

Do not pull on release arm to install

transmission. This will cause the

clutch to over adjust.

Do not force transmission against

clutch with yoke fingers in the UP

position. This will break the cast

webbing of the clutch causing

damage that is not warrantable.

Do not use excessive force. If it

does n

ot enter freely, investigate

the cause of problem and make

any necessary changes.

CAUTION

IMPORTANT

Do not add lube (never seize or

grease) to the input shaft splines.

The discs must be free to move.

In-Vehicle Resetting Procedure Using the Solo Advantage Clutch Reset Tool

1

Determine if the release bearing travel is

correct. Measure the distance between the

clutch brake and the release bearing with

the clutch pedal up. If the measurement is

between 0.490" and 0.590", the Solo has

set itself correctly.

Note: Yoke gap only applies to mechanical

linkage. Most hydraulic linkages operate

without yoke gap.

Tool Part Code:

RR1005CL

K-Line 1-800-824-5546

2

If the release bearing travel is less than 0.490"

the Solo must be reset. A common cause of this

is the transmission was pulled in with the release

arm during clutch installation.

3

Rotate the engine so that the cam tab can

be reached through the transmission

inspection opening.

4

Push the clutch pedal to the floor. While the clutch pedal

is pushed to the floor have someone push the cam tab to

the new position using finger pressure or the Solo tool.

Once the cam tab is pushed to the new position you can

release the clutch pedal.

Note: If the cam tab does not move, there is not enough

release bearing travel to allow the cams to separate. In

this case, loosen the transmission and install 1/2"

spacers between the flywheel housing and bell housing.

With the spacers in place push the clutch pedal to the

floor while someone pushes the cam tab to the new

position. Once the tab is in the new position release the

clutch pedal and remove the spacers. Torque the

tra

nsmission mounting bolts.
