1. Mark the position of the clutch in relation to the flywheel. This can be done using a center punch, making marks on the edges of the flywheel and clutch.
2. After this, the pressure spring is compressed. In auto repair shops, a lever is used for this purpose, as shown in the illustration. The lever is attached to the top side with two M12x30 bolts. If you now press the clutch lever from below, the pressure spring is compressed, as happens when the clutch is disengaged. If you observe the installation locations of the rotating supports, indicated by arrows in the illustration, you can see that the pressure plate moves away, leaving some space behind it. Steel brackets must be inserted into the resulting gap (kM-526-A fixture), shown in the illustration below. When the lever is released, the plates are clamped. In this position, you can unscrew the clutch mounting bolts. If the above mentioned device is not available, the spring can be compressed in some other way.
3. Loosen the six clutch mounting bolts evenly in a crisscross pattern and remove the clutch. In this case, it is necessary to properly hold the flywheel from turning. To do this, you can insert a sufficiently strong screwdriver between the teeth of the ring gear, or you can use a flywheel stopper, as shown in the illustration.
4. Remove the clutch and take out the driven disc. One side of the driven disc is marked as the gearbox side. Please keep this in mind when installing the disc.
5. Wipe the inside of the flywheel with a rag (blowing with compressed air is not allowed) and check the friction surface of the flywheel. If the driven disk is worn down to the rivet heads, the rivets may leave marks on the flywheel or pressure plate surfaces.
6. If a new clutch basket is installed, the steel brackets must be transferred to it. Now it's easier to do. Place the clutch on the friction surface and press the heel in the center of the pressure spring down (with due care). Remove the staples. Install brackets under the rotating support locations.
If it is necessary to disconnect the gearbox from the engine, loosen the clutch mounting bolts so that the clutch can be controlled.
