Maintenance and adjustment of the UAZ-3151 clutch

The clutch (Fig. 1) of the car is dry, single-disc, with hydraulic release.

Maintenance

The necessary work is carried out when disassembling the clutch.

Lubricate the clutch release bearing through the oiler cap located on the right side of the clutch housing, according to the lubrication table.

Adjusting the clutch mechanism

Adjust the clutch mechanism with the clutch pressure plate removed in the following order.

Before fastening, install a replacement template for the driven disk in the form of a ring 9.5 mm thick between the plate and the pressure disk.

Adjustment is carried out by screwing in or unscrewing the adjusting screws (Fig. 2) until the size is (51.5±0.75) mm (the distance of the head of one of the screws from the surface of the plate).

The difference in the distance from the plate to the heads of the other two screws should not exceed 0.2 mm.
