Removal
1. Remove the gearbox.
2. Mark the installation position of the pressure plate on the flywheel.
3. Loosen the mounting bolts in a diagonal order and remove the pressure and friction disc. To avoid damaging the diaphragm spring, it is recommended to use a special tool (the arrows indicate the location of the pressure plate mounting clamps).

Inspection
1. Inspect the friction surface for wear, loose rivets or contamination. Inspect the pressure plate for warping, cracks, broken diaphragm spring blades and worn splines. Replace the plate if necessary.
2. Inspect the flywheel and pressure plate surfaces. If they are badly scratched or have grooves or cracks, replace them.
3. Check the condition of the release bearing.
Installation
1. Wipe the pressure plate and flywheel.
2. Install the friction disc on the flywheel with the springs facing outward.
3. Install the pressure plate and tighten the mounting bolts.
4. Position the friction disc precisely in the center of the flywheel and housing and gradually tighten the mounting bolts in a diagonal order to the required tightening torque.
