Clean and inspect
Warning: Compressed air can pierce the skin and flying debris from compressed air could cause serious eye injury. Wear safety glasses when working with compressed air. Never use your hand to check for air leaks or to determine air flow rates.
1. Wash parts, except friction plates and bearing, in cleaning solvent. Dry parts with low-pressure, compressed air.
Note: If any individual plate shows evidence of wear or damage, replace all friction plates.
2. Check friction plates:
- a. Use low-pressure, compressed air to remove all lubricant. Do not dry with cloth.
- b. Look for worn or damaged fiber surface material on both sides.
- c. Measure thickness of each plate with a dial caliper or micrometer.
- d. Discard all friction plates if any one plate is less than 3.62 mm (0.142 in) thick.
Note: Discard any steel plate that is grooved or bluish in color. Blue plates are likely warped or distorted.
3. Check steel plates:
- a. Lay each plate on a precision flat surface.
- b. Insert feeler gauge between plate and flat surface in several places.
- c. Replace any steel plate that is warped more than 0.15 mm (0.006 in).
4. Check clutch hub:
- a. Check for excessive wear. Replace hub if worn or damaged.
5. Check bearings:
- a. Check bearings for smoothness. Replace bearing if it rotates roughly, binds or has any end play.
- b. Check ramps for excessive wear. Replace hub if ramps are worn or damaged.
Assemble
Note: If installing new friction plates, soak them for 10 minutes in GENUINE HARLEY-DAVIDSON H-D 360 20W50 MOTORCYCLE OIL and assemble while wet.
1. See Figure 5-12. Install bearing (2), if removed, using a suitable press.
2. Install oil pump gear (1).
3. Install collar (4).
4. Install washer (5).
5. Assemble pressure plate and hub assembly.
- a. See Figure 5-13. Install damper spring seat (3) and damper spring (12) on clutch hub (13).
Notes: Figure 5-14. The inner friction plate (1) has more oil grooves cut into the friction material than the other friction discs (2).
The narrow friction plate (3) is thinner than the other friction plates to accommodate the damper spring and seat.
- b. See Figure 5-12. Install narrow friction plate (10).
- c. Install steel plates (8) and friction plates (9).
- d. Install inner friction plate (7).
- e. Install pressure plate (6).
6. See Figure 5-15. Install pressure plate and hub assembly into clutch basket. Align friction plate tabs as shown.
- a. Align tabs of inner friction plate and friction plates (1) as shown.
- b. Align tabs of narrow friction plate (2) as shown.
