How to Adjust the Free Travel of the Clutch Pedal?
1 Answers
Adjustment methods for the free travel of the clutch pedal: 1. For mechanically operated clutches, adjust by changing the length of the pedal connecting rod. Tighten the adjustment nut on the pedal connecting rod, then secure it with a lock nut once properly adjusted; 2. For hydraulically operated clutches, adjust by altering the length of the clutch slave cylinder push rod to create a gap between the master cylinder push rod and the piston. The free travel of the clutch pedal can be measured using a regular ruler at the pedal. First, measure the height of the pedal at its highest position, then measure the height when pressing the pedal until slight resistance is felt. The difference between these two measurements is the free travel value of the clutch pedal. If the value does not meet the requirements, adjust it promptly.
