CLUTCH ACTUATOR(for C553A) REMOVAL
CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT
If reusing the clutch actuator assembly, make sure to perform the clutch position adjustment operation.
When installing a new clutch actuator assembly, it is not necessary to perform the clutch position adjustment operation.
PROCEDURE
CLUTCH POSITION ADJUSTMENT
Tip:The multi-mode manual transmission system has a load controlled clutch cover adjustment system. The pressure plate moves depending on the wear of the clutch disc lining.
When removing or installing any parts related to the multi-mode manual transmission system, move the clutch actuator to the clutch clamp position. This is for normal operation of the load controlled clutch cover (adjustment system).
If the clutch position adjustment operation input fails, perform the operation again from step (1) more than 15 seconds after turning the ignition switch off.
