Action 19
*
. Adjusting the free travel of
the clutch pedal
IMPORTANT! Too long pedal travel will
not allow to the clutch to be fully disen-
gaged and will make the gear switching
difficult. Absence of free pedal travel will
cause slipping of clutch disks, quick
wear of friction facings and overheating
of the clutch parts.
*
Perform M action after 250 hours of operation.
To adjust free clutch pedal travel:
• Unsplint and remove the pin (2) and
take it away, having disconnected the
rod (5) from the lever (1).
• Loosen the locknut (4).
• Unscrew the bolt (8) so that the pedal
rod (6) would move upwards to the
stop against the cab floor.
• Turn the lever (1) counter-clockwise to
the stop, i.e. when the release bearing
touches pressing arms.
• Unscrewing the fork (3), align the
openings in the fork with those in the
lever (1), and then screw the fork into
the rod (5) by 5-5.5 turns (i.e. make
the rod shorter). Connect the fork (3)
with the lever (1) by using the pin (2).
• Assemble the leverage of the clutch
pedal in reverse order.
IMPORTANT! Make sure that the clutch
pedal returns reliably to the stop against
the floor at the distance of free pedal
travel. Otherwise, adjust the servo-unit
springs (7) by means of the bolt (8) or re -
position the holder (9) by turning it rela-
tively to the fastening bolt axis.
