    The document discusses clutch replacement procedures and safety precautions. It provides possible causes for clutch bearing failure such as a worn clutch cable resulting in continual contact between the clutch release bearing and pressure plate. Safety precautions for replacing the clutch release bearing include maintaining cleanliness, using caution to avoid damage, and using proper tools. Several potential clutch problems and their remedies are listed, such as replacing a burned friction disc or renewing defective parts for uneven plate wear. Installation techniques discussed include cleaning the flywheel, using an alignment tool marked for installation reference, and aligning the clutch with the tool inserted into the pilot bearing. Safety precautions for working on the clutch include wearing gloves, eye protection and a dust mask, wetting clutch dust

    NAME: KEVIN HEATHER DR.

    LOYO SUBJECT: AT 4

    YEAR & SECTION: 2-2 BT-AT INSTRUCTOR: MR. NOLI ESTRABO

    1. Give possible causes and why the clutch bearing failed?

    - a further common cause of clutch trust / release bearing damage is if the clutch cable is not changed
    over time, resulting in the clutch release / throw out bearing being in continual contact with the clutch
    pressure plate. This will cause it to spin incessantly, drastically shortening its life.

    2. What safety precaution must be taken while replacing clutch release bearing?

    - Maintain the cleanliness of the bearings and the surrounding area.

    Even if it is imperceptible to the naked eye, dust and grime are detrimental to bearings. It is vital to keep
    the bearings and their surroundings as clean as possible to prevent the introduction of dust and debris.

    - Extreme Caution

    Heavy shocks while handling may scrape or otherwise damage bearings, leading in their failure.
    Excessive force can induce brinelling, breaking, or cracking.

    - Make Use of Proper Tools

    When working with bearings, always use the correct tools and avoid using general purpose tools.

    - Keep Corrosion at Bay

    Keep your hands clean when handling bearings since perspiration and other impurities might cause
    corrosion. If possible, put on gloves. Keep an eye out for bearing rust caused by corrosive gases.

    3. List down at least five (5) possible causes and give their corresponding remedies or solutions to the
    problem.

    I. Burned or glazed friction surfaces

    Solution:

    When a clutch burns out, the clutch disc must be replaced immediately. However, the clutch disc may
    not be the only component necessary to solve the problem. To inspect the clutch components, a
    technician must remove the manual transmission.

    II. Oil on friction disc

    Solution:

    Oil does not simply sit on the surface of the friction material; it soaks in and embeds itself. Once the oil
    gets into the clutch, there's no way to get it out without soaking it in a boiling solvent or caustic lye,
    which would kill the clutch.
    III. Uneven driven plate wear

    Solution: Renew defective parts, fit new clutch

    IV. Clutch is running partly disengaged

    Solution:

    Reset adjustment to specified setting

    Repair or replace

    Renew defective parts

    Renew clutch

    V. Flywheel damaged or out of true

    Solution:

    Machine or replace flywheel

    4. Based on the you tube video entitled “How to Replace a Clutch in your Car”.

    a. Give at least three (3) hints or technique in installing clutch disc.

    1. we need to clean the grease off the surface of the flywheel before we install the clutch, otherwise the
    clutch could get grease on it and slit.

    2. grab the clutch alignment tool, get a marker or a pen and draw a line on the top of the clutch
    alignment tool so it makes a lot easier when installing the transmission.

    3. grab the clutch alignment tool and clutch flat side towards the flywheel and spline it and install, and
    we want the end of the alignment tool to go all the way into the pilot bearing and that’ll hold the clutch
    in the middle and grab the pressure plate and align this onto the studs we hammered into the flywheel
    before.

    b. What safety precautions must be taken while working in clutch? Give at

    at least three (3).

    1. you need to wear gloves, eye protection and a dust mask.

    2. spray down the clutch with water to get the dust wet which makes it less likely to get airborne and you
    won’t breathe it in.

    3. when unscrew the last bolt, hold the pressure plate with your other hand so it won’t just fall when you
    unscrew the bolt all the way.
