Fig. 3.14. Clutch pedal adjustment diagram
If the pedal height above the floor is not correct, adjust it as shown in Figure 3.14.
Use the bolt to adjust the pedal height, then tighten the lock nut.
Caution: After adjustment, tighten the bolt until it touches the pedal stop, then tighten the lock nut.
Rotate the push rod to adjust its length to the new pedal height, then secure the push rod with the nut.
Caution: When adjusting the pedal height, make sure that the push rod does not move towards the master cylinder.
After completing the adjustment, make sure that the clutch pedal free play (measured from the surface of the pedal pad) is within the normal range.
Nominal value "B": 6-13 mm.
Fig. 3.15. Free travel of the clutch pedal
If the clutch pedal free travel is not within the norm, the possible causes are air in the hydraulic drive or a faulty master cylinder. Bleed the hydraulic drive and check the master cylinder or clutch (Fig. 3.15).
