What is the function of clutch disc cushion?

The clutch disc cushion ensures the smooth start of the car. After starting the engine and before the car starts, the driver first steps on the clutch pedal, disengages the clutch, disengages the engine and drivetrain, then shifts the transmission into a gear, and then gradually releases the clutch pedal to gradually engage the clutch . During the engagement process, the resistance torque of the engine gradually increases, so the accelerator pedal should be gradually depressed at the same time, that is, the fuel supply to the engine should be gradually increased, so that the engine speed is always maintained at the lowest stable speed without stalling. At the same time, due to the gradual increase in the degree of clutch engagement, the torque transmitted from the engine to the drive wheels through the driveline gradually increases. When the tractive force is sufficient to overcome the starting resistance, the car starts moving from a standstill and accelerates gradually.

What are the precautions to take when disassembling the clutch disc cushion?

Disassembly precautions

1. before disassembling the clutch disc cushion, first remove the separator ring hanging on the separator lever (claw). Then pass the lower three claws of the pressure plate disassembly tool through the pressure plate from the "bottom of the roller assembly", press the clutch disc cushion onto the lower three claws, and then pass the upper three claws of the disassembly tool through the lead screw to press on the pressure plate Screw the nut into the screw. Turn the screw nut clockwise with the booster rod, and the upper three claws gradually push down the roller cover to loosen the adjustment nuts of the six separating levers (claw). .

2. Use the eyeglass wrench to disassemble the six adjustment nuts. Then turn the lead screw nut counterclockwise with the afterburner to gradually loosen the platen cover, and finally remove the lead screw nut completely. At this point, the plate cover is completely disengaged from the clutch disc pad.

What are the assembly considerations for the clutch disc cushion?

A. Install the guide bearing;

B. Install the disconnect sleeve, disconnect bearing, shift fork, return spring (dust shield) and other accessories;

C. Install the flywheel, clutch cover and disc one by one; Be sure to install the clutch assembly and driven disc according to the "marking" when disassembling, fix them to the flywheel and install them at the specified position, and tighten the bolts to the specified torque.

D. Reassemble the transmission assembly.
