Clutch.
The operation of the clutch on the modern motor car is
comparatively speaking fool-proof, that is to say when the clutch pedal is
pushed down the power from the engine in disconnected, but when the
pressure on the pedal is released the clutch engages. From
:I
point of view
of actual maintenance there are only two items in connection with the clutch
that the owner need trouble about-one is periodical lubrication of the
clutch withdrawal ball race or thrust, secondly, adju~tm~ent of the set screws
attached to the withdra\val arms in order to give the necessary clearance
between the clutch plates when the clutch is disengaged and equally to
prc;-cnt slipping when engaged.
