8.4.2. Adjusting the clutch pedal free play
The free play of the clutch pedal must be adjusted if the clutch is difficult to depress or after installing new parts. The clutch pedal must be in place (2) free play 13-23 mm (gasoline engines) or 5-15 mm (diesel engines), which is determined by moving the pedal with your fingers in both directions. When adjusting, loosen the locknut (3) and rearrange the pusher rod until the specified free play of the clutch pedal is achieved. Tighten the locknut. When carefully moving the clutch pedal with your fingers, you should feel a free play of 1-5 mm. This is the pusher rod's own play. If it is missing, the adjustment should be repeated again.
