1. CLUTCH SYSTEM LAYOUT
The main purpose of clutch is to transfer torque, disengage during shifting, allow comfortable starting
and to act as an efficient vibration damper to eliminate noise and vibration in the chassis and drive train.
The clutch is between the engine and transmission. It consists mainly of a clutch cover assembly and a
clutch disc assembly. The clutch transfers torque from Engine to the transmission and then to the drive
wheels.
The clutch is a 240 mm dia. single disc diaphragm clutch. The clutch disc is connected to the
transmission input shaft. The self-adjusting clutch is used to maintain almost constant clutch pedal effort
over lifetime of clutch.
