Install (4) shipping bolts and progressively tighten
by hand until they bottom out. Rotate the engine to
access all 4 bolts:
• 15 1/2" Solo use 7/16 x 14 UNC x 1 3/4"
• Stamped 14" Solo use 3/8 x 16 UNC x 1 1/4"
Note: This will reset the pressure plate separator
pins and allow the clutch to release after installation.
6
Remove the (4) shipping bolts. The release bearing and
sleeve will move forward towards the engine when the
bolts are removed. The Solo is now in the new position.
8
Measure the distance between
the clutch brake and the release
bearing. It should be between
0.490" and 0.590".
10
Adjust the clutch linkage to
achieve 1/8" clearance between
the release yoke and the
release bearing. Verify proper
clutch brake squeeze.
9
If the release bearing travel is still
greater than 0.590" between the
clutch brake and the release
bearing, repeat Steps 7 and 8.
7
With the free pedal removed push the clutch pedal down
at least 5 times. Make sure the clutch release bearing
contacts the clutch brake.
While you engage and release the clutch the cab free pedal
will increase. This indicates the Solo is adjusting to the
environment.

Slowly let up on the pedal and
measure the pedal position at the
moment the gauge can be removed:
• If pedal is more than 1" (25.4 mm)
from the floor, readjust the truck
linkage to move the yoke fingers
further from the release bearing.
Repeat Step 1.
Less than 1"
( 25.4 mm)
Have an assistant insert 0.010" (0.25 mm)
feeler gauge between the release
bearing and the clutch brake.
Press the pedal down to the floor to
clamp the gauge:
• If the gauge does not clamp, readjust
the truck linkage and move the yoke
finger closer to the bearing.

Use a gauge long enough to keep
