STOP! READ CAREFULLY BEFORE INSTALLING CLUTCH This clutch must be installed by a qualified installer. Improper installation or failure to replace or re- surface the flywheel, or to replace the pilot bearing, clutch brake or other worn drive train components may cause poor clutch release or early failure and void the manufacturer’s warranty. Verify Correct Flywheel Dimensions Flywheel bore (DIM A) must be a minimum of 10”. (See Fig. 1) Fig. 1 Fig. 2 10” Fig. 3 You must have a minimum of 5/16” distance from the friction surface (face) of your flywheel to the top of the bolt head that holds the flywheel to the crankshaft. If it is less than 5/16”, you need a NEW fly- wheel! (See Fig. 3) Flywheel clutch pilot cannot be greater than 3/16” deep. If it is greater than 3/16” the clutch will not bolt tight to flywheel. (See Fig. 2) January 2015 Insert # 1001SA INSTALLATION 1. Resurface or replace flywheel. Surface must be smooth or premature clutch failure can occur. REMEMBER: Machining the flywheel past the recommended .060” moves the pressure plate away from the transmission. In this event, install a fiber spacer (provided) on the input shaft between the clutch brake and the transmis- sion. The release yoke in the bell housing may not align properly with the pressure plate release bearing housing. Linkage adjustment may be required during clutch setup. If resurfacing is required, while the fly- wheel is mounted to the crank shaft, ve
