The clutch cover is bolted to the rear surface of the flywheel, and the driven disc is located between the pressure plate and the friction surface of the flywheel.
The disc hub has a splined connection with the gearbox input shaft and can move freely along the splines. Friction linings are riveted to both sides of the disc, and its hub has damping springs to dampen impact energy and ensure smooth shifting.
When you press the clutch pedal, the pusher of the working cylinder moves the clutch release lever forward, and the release bearing begins to press on the fingers of the diaphragm spring. As the center of the spring moves inward, its outer part moves outward and moves the pressure plate away from the driven. Torque is no longer transmitted to the gearbox.
When the clutch pedal is released, the pressure plate, under pressure from the diaphragm spring, sits on the friction linings of the driven disc and at the same time pushes it forward a little along the splines of the gearbox input shaft until it engages with the flywheel. The driven disk is sandwiched between the pressure plate and the flywheel, and the torque begins to be transmitted to the gearbox
As the lining of the driven disk wears out, the pressure plate at rest approaches closer and closer to the flywheel, which leads to some rise in the fingers of the diaphragm spring. On a cable-actuated clutch, this would require some adjustment, but the hydraulic-actuated clutch on the models in question does not need to be readjusted. Wear is automatically compensated each time the clutch pedal is depressed by changing the amount of hydraulic fluid in the circuit.
