CLUTCH SYSTEM > Clutch Pedal

ADJUSTMENT

1. CLUTCH PEDAL

1. Turn the lock nut until the full stroke of clutch pedal becomes within the specification.

CAUTION:

When adjusting the full stroke of clutch pedal, do not turn the clutch switch.

NOTE:

If the lock nut cannot adjust the full stroke of clutch pedal to the specified value, adjust it by turning the master cylinder push rod.

Clutch pedal full stroke A:

130 — 135 mm (5.12 — 5.31 in) (Non-turbo model)

135 — 140 mm (5.31 — 5.51 in) (Turbo model)

Tightening torque (Clutch switch lock nut):

T: 8 N·m (0.8 kgf-m, 5.9 ft-lb)

2. Turn the master cylinder push rod to move the clevis pin to the left, then to the right. The clevis pin should move without resistance even if it is rattling.

T: 10 N·m (1.0 kgf-m, 7.4 ft-lb)

3. Depress and release the clutch pedal two or three times to ensure that the clutch pedal and release fork operate smoothly. If the clutch pedal and release fork do not operate smoothly, bleed air from the clutch hydraulic system.

4. Measure the clutch pedal full stroke length again to ensure that it is within the specified range. If it is not within the specified range, repeat the adjustment procedures again from the beginning.

Clutch pedal full stroke:

130 — 135 mm (5.12 — 5.31 in) (Non-turbo model)

135 — 140 mm (5.31 — 5.51 in) (Turbo model)

5. Move the clevis pin to left, then to right. The clevis pin should move without resistance even if it is rattling. If resistance is felt, repeat adjustment procedures again from the beginning.

6. Push the release lever until the operating cylinder push rod retracts. Make sure that the clutch fluid level in the reservoir tank increases. If the clutch fluid level increases, the hydraulic clutch is properly adjusted; if the fluid level does not increase or the push rod does not retract, replace with a new master cylinder.
