Checking the hydraulic system

Checking the hydraulic system
|
1.
|
Check the level of the fluid in the hydraulic fluid reservoir.
|
2.
|
If the level is low, check for possible leakage and take remedial action if necessary.
|
3.
|
If the fluid level is OK, remove the battery, undo the cap on the side of the clutch actuator unit and check the position of the worm gear.
Apply a torque wrench set at 20 Nm to the worm gear and turn it from the engaged position to the disengaged position and back to the engaged position again. If the system has been properly bled the worm gear should stop dead when the torque wrench is released, whatever its position.
|
4.
|
If the worm gear is still without hydraulic pressure in spite of the system having been bled, change the master cylinder. With no hydraulic pressure present, the force of the spring will have to be overcome manually.
Important
|
After work has been carried out on the clutch actuator unit, hydraulic system, clutch, etc., the clutch may exhibit a tendency to snatch. This should normally disappear after adaptation of the slip point.
