Special tools and equipment
^ Retainer 10-201
^ Thrust pad 3062
^ entering mandrel 3176
^ Grease G 000 100

Notes:
^ Observe the general repair instructions.
^ The adjuster ring for the SAC-clutch pressure plate (self-adjusting clutch pressure plate) must be reset before assembly when the clutch ring is replaced exclusively.
^ Replace clutch plates and pressure plates with damaged or loose rivets.
^ Select the correct clutch plate and pressure plate according to engine code:
go to Parts Catalog
^ Clean input shaft splines and (in the case of used clutch plates) the hub splines. Remove corrosion and apply only a very thin coating of grease G 000 100 to the splines. Then move clutch plate to and for on input shaft until hub moves freely on shaft. Excess grease must be removed.
^ Pressure plates are protected against corrosion and greased. Only the contact surface may be cleaned, otherwise the service fife of the clutch will be considerably reduced.
^ If the clutch has burnt out, thoroughly clean the bell housing, flywheel and parts of the engine facing the transmission in order to reduce the smell.
