What to Pay Attention to When Pressing the Clutch?
1 Answers
When pressing the clutch, it is important to use the heel as a support point, place the front part of the foot on the clutch pedal, and press or step using the ankle and knee. This allows the driver to feel the semi-engaged state of the clutch. The main functions of the clutch are: 1. Ensuring smooth vehicle startup; 2. Facilitating smooth gear shifting in the transmission; 3. Preventing overload in the drivetrain. The working principle of the clutch is: the torque generated by the engine is transmitted to the driven plate through the friction between the flywheel, pressure plate, and the contact surface of the driven plate. When the driver presses the clutch pedal, the diaphragm spring's large end moves the pressure plate backward through the transmission of mechanical components, causing the driven part to separate from the driving part.
