Drive clutch
To drive clutch used brake fluid, which is in the same tank as the drive brake fluid.
A warning Brake fluid is highly toxic, highly combustible, hygroscopic (absorbs moisture from the air) and destroys the paintwork. To neutralize its impact can be plenty of cold water. |
This tank is divided into two parts: one for the brake system, and the other to drive the clutch. These systems operate independently of each other. Hydraulic clutch actuator is composed of a pedal, the master cylinder conduit, the hose and the working cylinder. Clutch slave cylinder is carried out, which directly affects the release bearing, unlike other car companies ?�Volkswagen?� and ?�Ford?�, where the slave cylinder actuates the release bearing through the lever (plug).

The working cylinder with clutch release bearing located inside the clutch housing (Fig. 231) on the gearbox input shaft. Pleated dust cover protects the slave cylinder and release bearing from dirt.

Master cylinder 8 (Fig. 232) coupling with a tank 1 for brake fluid located near the axis of clutch pedal 4, the left side, and is connected to a pedal rod pusher 6. When you press the clutch pedal pusher pushed connected thereto a piston in the master cylinder. Due to the inside of the master cylinder pressure is generated which is transmitted through the hose 23, the clutch slave cylinder.
