Assembly

A. SNAP RING INSTALLATION

1. Fit a new snap ring to the Guide of the special tool, and install it to the retainer. Be sure to fit snap ring to the lowest possible portion of the Guide.

Put the Installer over the Guide and use a press to install the snap ring in the groove. If the snap ring is installed in the groove, stop using the press. Do not use the press more than necessary. Further, be sure not to support the portion (center protruded portion) marked with arrows in the illustration.




B. SNAP RING SELECTION

1. Check clearance between the snap ring and clutch reaction plate. To check the clearance, hold entire circumference of the clutch reaction plate down with 50 Nm (11 lbs.) force. If clearance is out of standard value, select a snap ring to obtain the standard value.

Standard value: 0.4-0.65 mm (0.016-0.026 in.)
