- AFTER REASSEMBLY, CHECK MAGNETIC CLUTCH CLEARANCE
- Set the dial indicator to the pressure plate of the magnetic clutch.
- Connect the magnetic clutch lead wire to the positive (+) terminal of the battery.
- Check the clearance between the pressure plate and rotor when connecting the negative (-) terminal to the battery.
- Standard clearance: 0.5 +/- 0.15 mm (0.020 +/- 0.0059 in.)
If the clearance is not within the standard clearance, adjust the clearance using shims to obtain the standard clearance.
