The most important parts of the clutch
Flywheel. The flywheel is rigidly connected to the crankshaft. Some engines are equipped with a dual-disc flywheel. The spring-loaded and damped flywheel reduces the transmission of engine vibrations to the gearbox.
Driven clutch disc. This disc is located on the input shaft of the gearbox. Pads are riveted to the disk on both sides.
Clutch pressure plate. The pressure plate is screwed to the flywheel. This disc, by means of a poppet (membrane) springs burns the driven disc to the flywheel.
Clutch release bearing. Depressing the clutch pedal hydraulically actuates the lever and the clutch release fork. The clutch release fork presses the bearing, which is located on the fork shaft, against the disc spring of the clutch pressure plate.
