I

WARNING

I

Do

not

have

the

engine

running.

It

the

clutch

does

not

disengage

after

following

the

proper

adjustment

procedures

or

you

cannot

shift

from

neutral

to

any

gear

without

the

gears

grinding,

the

following

conditions

could

exist.

1.

The

milled

slot

In

the

rear

pressure

plate

is

not

centered

and

it

is

binding

on

the

roll

pin.

Replace

the

rear

pressure

plate.

2.

If

either

of

the

pressure

plates

are

warped,

the

clutch

will

not

separate

and

they

should

be

replaced.

3.

If

any

weld

splash

is

on

either

pressure

plate,

it

will

cause

the

disc

to

hang

up

and

the

clutch

will

not

disengage.

Remove

the

splash

or

replace

the

pressure

plates.

4.

When

the

holes

are

not

drilled

properly

in

the

fiber

clutch

disc

it

will

hang

up

on

the

drive

pins

and

will

not

separate.

Replace

the

fiber

disc.

5.

Rust

on

the

center

shaft

of

the

clutch

can

cause

the

spring

guides

under

the

small

spring

to

bind.

See

Figure

Remove

the

rust

from

the

shaft

and

lubricate

Depress

the

clutch

pedal

with

your

left

and

try

to

rotate

the

small

spring

located

between

the

pressure

plate

and

the

throwout

yoke

with

your
