Attention: Remember that the dust generated during the wear of the friction linings of the clutch disc may contain asbestos, which is harmful to health. Do not blow off dust with compressed air and try not to inhale it. Do not use petroleum-based solvents to clean clutch components, use only special brake cleaners or pure methanol. Store used rags in a sealed container.
1. The slave cylinder assembly with release bearing is attached to the inside of the clutch dome and requires the gearbox to be removed to remove it.
2. Thoroughly wipe the outside of the cylinder, then loosen the union nut and disconnect the hydraulic line from the cylinder (see resist. illustration), - Wipe up spilled brake fluid immediately with a rag. Turn out 3 fixing bolts and remove the cylinder from an input shaft of a transmission.
3.2 Installation diagram of the clutch slave cylinder - the arrows indicate the mounting bolts
3. Remove the sealing ring installed between the cylinder and the gearbox housing - the ring must be replaced without fail. Take precautions to prevent dirt from getting into the box.
4. A failed slave cylinder cannot be repaired. If brake fluid leaks develop, replace the cylinder assembly.
5. Before installation, make sure that the mating surfaces of the cylinder and the crankcase of the manual transmission are absolutely clean and dry. Fit a new O-ring into the receiving groove on the transmission case.
Note: When installing a new slave cylinder assembly, the protective collar must be removed (Red). Lubricate the cylinder inner O-ring with clean gear oil and carefully install the cylinder onto the manual transmission input shaft. A tool can be used to prevent damage to the inner O-ring.
Note: Each transmission has its own tool!
6. Further installation is carried out in the reverse order of removal. Don't forget to bleed the hydraulic circuit (see Section 4).
