- A centering rod is usually required to center the driven disk. To do this, you can use the existing clutch shaft, which you may have in the workshop. Please note that not all engines have the same clutch shafts.
- If there is no clutch shaft, you can straighten the driven disc using a rod whose outer diameter corresponds to the inner diameter of the splines. On this rod, grind a journal, which has a diameter equal to the inner diameter that the crankshaft guide bearing has. In skillful hands, you can align the driven disk by eye. When installing the driven disk, place the long side of the clutch disk hub outward, that is, towards the gearbox.
- Before installing the clutch, lightly lubricate the splined part of the clutch shaft. If the clutch is being reinstalled, align the clutch according to the marks made during removal and install it on the flywheel.
- Tighten the clutch bolts crosswise in several passes to a final tightening torque of 20 Nm, while removing and inserting the centering rod (or shaft), as shown in Figure 160, to control the ability to move along the splines.
