    Warnings and Cautions

    Repair Warnings

    The major cause of clutch failure is excessive heat. Excessiveheat generated between the flywheel, driven discs, intermedi-ate plate and pressure plate can cause the metal to flow andthe material to be destroyed. If this occurs, the clutch canburst which can cause property damage, serious bodily injuryor death. In order to prevent clutch failure resulting fromexcessive heat:

    1. Do not exceed recommended vehicle loads.

    2. The clutch should only be used for the recom-mended applications.

    3. Drivers should be properly trained in starting, shift-

    ing and operation of the clutch.

    4. Drivers should report erratic clutch operation assoon as possible to permit maintenance personnel toinspect, adjust or lubricate as required.

    5. Mechanics must be familiar with proper clutchadjustment, linkage adjustment, lubrication andother maintenance troubleshooting procedures out-lined in the Failure Analysis Guide.

    When disassembling various assemblies, lay all parts on aclean bench in the same sequence as removed to simplify andreduce the possibility of losing parts.

    Since the cost of a new part is generally a small fraction of thecost of downtime and labor, avoid reusing a questionable partthat could lead to additional repairs and expense.

    Use of other than recommended tools, parts, and instructionslisted in this manual may place the safety of the service tech-nician or vehicle driver in jeopardy.

    The removal and installation procedure described for each

    component may vary for your vehicle.

    For Solo and Heavy-Duty ECA clutches only, install shippingbolts before removing clutch assembly from the flywheel.

    For service information and assistance, call the RoadrangerHelp Desk at 1-800-826-HELP (4357) (Mexico: 01-800-826-HELP (4357). You may also find more information aboutEaton Clutches at www.Roadranger.com.

    General Information

    General Clutch Information

    Function of a Clutch

    Any modern day clutch, whether designed for an automobileor heavy truck, performs several important tasks allowing forsafe and convenient operation of the vehicle.

    In a vehicle powertrain, the clutch is the device that interruptsthe flow of power from the engine flywheel to the transmis-sion. To start a gasoline or diesel engine, the flywheel must beable to turn freely without propelling the vehicle. By disengag-ing the clutch, the drivetrain is effectively disconnected fromthe rotation of the flywheel allowing the engine to start.

    Manual transmissions, whether synchronized (synchromesh)or non-synchronized (constant mesh), require an interruption

    of engine torque to complete a gear change. To make a gearchange, the clutch pedal is depressed, breaking torque. Thisis followed by altering engine speed to more closely match thetransmission input shaft (clutch disc) speed. After the propergear is selected, the clutch pedal is then slowly released. Asthe clutch disc(s) are compressed, the relative slip speedbetween the flywheel and the transmission input shaft reacheszero and the clutch is completely engaged and capable of car-rying full engine torque. With non-synchronized gearboxes,double clutching (a momentary partial engagement of theclutch made while the transmission is in neutral) is often nec-essary to allow rotational speeds of gears to become thesame and complete the gear change.

    With the advent of transmission automation, breaking torqueand altering flywheel speed is accomplished via electronicthrottle control and engine braking. The clutch pedal is usedonly when starting the engine, launching the vehicle from astop, and when the vehicle slows to a stop.

    The last function of the clutch is mitigating torsional vibra-tions. With any in-line, six-cylinder engine there are three (3)distinct power pulses occurring during each revolution of theflywheel. With each firing of a cylinder, the flywheel speeds upthen slows down, very quickly, resulting in a torsional vibra-

    tion. This vibration can damage drivetrain components inshort order if left uncontrolled. The coil springs in a drivendisc damper absorb much of the vibration. The resonant (gen-erally the least expensive drivetrain component) is consideredthe fuse of the system. Failure of a clutch damper section isusually an indication of a serious torsional vibration systemsproblem or shock loading due to driver abuse.

    Clutches are assemblies made up of many different compo-nents utilizing many different types of materials. This section

    describes the major components which make up a completeEaton Clutch installation.

    The following are the major components used to make up aclutch installation:

    Cover Assembly (contains pressure plate) Intermediate Plate (only in 2-plate clutches) Driven Disc(s) Clutch Brake

    Neutral Idle Rattle

    Neutral idle rattle is a system issue. It occurs when the engine

    is idling with the transmission in neutral and the clutch pedalin the up position. As the engine idles, the firing pulses causethe flywheel to oscillate as it is rotating. This oscillation istransmitted through the input shaft and into the transmissiongearing. This oscillation causes the transmission gears toimpact one another resulting in a sometimes objectionablenoise. While this noise is an annoyance, it is in no way dam-aging to the transmission and other components.

    In the past, free travel dampers have been used to overcomethis phenomenon. As systems have changed, in terms ofmass, inertia, and fuel injection pressures, free travel hasbecome a less effective means of control.

    Free travel, simply stated, is the free left or right rotation ofthe driven disc hub before engaging the clutch damper. Thisfirst stage isolates some of the flywheel oscillation energy andprevents or reduces the idle rattle.

    Pre-damper technology is now available in some medium-and heavy-duty clutch applications and performs the samefunction as the free travel. By adding a dampened first stage,it is more effective at limiting neutral idle rattle. Generally, thepre-damper springs are very small and softer in rate than themain damper springs.

    In diagnosing neutral idle rattle complaints, first try to fullydepress the clutch pedal. This will disconnect the engine fromthe transmission. Secondly, try raising the engine idle speedwith the clutch pedal up. This may smooth out the engine fir-ing and may reduce, or eliminate, the noise.

    If you have neutral idle rattle, determine what clutch isinstalled in the vehicle. It may already have a pre-damperclutch in it. If it is already equipped with a pre-damper clutch,then there is no benefit to changing the clutch.

    The Eaton Solo is the industrys first adjustment-free clutch.With every push of the pedal, Solos innovative wear-adjustingtechnology senses for wear and makes any adjustments nec-essary.

    Why There is No Need to Adjust Eaton Self-Adjusting Clutches

    If the Self-Adjusting Clutch is properly installed and the link-age is set-up properly, the Self-Adjusting Clutch should neverneed internal or external adjusting.

    The Self-Adjusting Clutch automatically keeps the properrelease bearing position and clutch free pedal position withtwo opposing cams. As the Self-Adjusting Clutch wears, the

    cams separate from each other keeping the proper releasebearing position. This in turn maintains the proper clutch freepedal position.

    How it Works

    Eaton Self-Adjusting Clutches wear-adjusting technologycomes from two sliding cams. With every push of the pedal,the clutch senses for wear and makes any adjustments neces-sary. The cams rotate to maintain the proper adjustmentthroughout the life of the clutch. On top of the upper cam, aclutch wear indicating tab mirrors the camsmovement to let

    you know when its time to replace the clutch. The result ofSolos constant adjustment is greater longevity and a reduc-tion in maintenance and labor costs.

    Clutch Disc Dampening Characteristics

    A key function of a clutch is to mitigate naturally occurringvibrations of the engine flywheel from reaching the transmis-sion and the other components further down the drivetrain.This is accomplished by employing torsional spring dampersto the clutch pack. These springs take the form of coil springs,configured inside the clutch disc, that compress with the

    application of torque. The torque path through the damperbegins at the friction interface at the facings, proceeds to thesteel carrier disc and moves into the disc reinforcing plateswhere the springs are located. The springs are compressed,transmitting force to the spring covers which are rigidlyattached to the hub. Torsional rate is defined as the amount oftorque required per degree of center hub rotation. There arethree basic categories of torsional rates for clutch dampers:rigid, standard, soft.

    Rigid and Clutch Discs - Rigid discs and clutch discs with nospring package whatsoever, act as a nearly direct link from theengine flywheel to the transmission and offer no protectionagainst torsional vibration. Their use should be limited toolder mechanically-fueled engines where clutch replacement

    cost is paramount over long component life. Rigid clutchdiscs are never used in new OEM applications.

    Standard Dampers - Standard dampers include all 10-springand most 8- spring types. The springs used in these dampersare approximately 1.5" long and do not offer a large amount ofdeflection before coil lock takes place. While these damperswere completely adequate for most heavy duty applicationsseveral years ago, they are generally incapable of reducing theengine flywheel vibrations developed with slow speed elec-tronically fueled engines. The use of standard dampers inheavy duty applications has virtually ceased in OEM applica-tions. The trend is to use more capable soft-rate dampers.

    Soft-Rate Dampers - Soft-rate dampers, like the heavy-duty7-spring and VCT Plus, offer much better protection againstengine flywheel induced torsional vibrations. Their springs arecharacteristically longer than springs used in standard ratedampers and offer more deflection before coil lock occurs.This larger spring deflection is equated to lower torsionalspring rate. With lower torsional rate, the resonant frequencyof the complete drivetrain is lowered; usually to a point of afew hundred RPM below normal engine operating range. Withthe addition of hysteresis or Coulomb dampening (the energyexpelled as the damper is exercised), the magnitude of the

    vibrations is reduced further, adding to the dampers benefit.

    Pre-Dampers - Pre-damper is a feature designed for reducingidle rattle noise in various applications, where torsional vibra-tions are growing more erratic. That is why Eaton is nowintroducing the latest option for heavy-duty applications, theVCT Plus PD, where PD stands for Pre-Damper. The Pre-Damper consists of seven small springs, surrounding the hubthat reduce idle rattle when operating at low torque or enginespeed with the transmission in neutral, prior to operation ofthe primary damper stage.

    General Information

    Clutch Disc Friction Material

    Organic facings, often called rag facings, get their namefrom the high concentration of organic rubber and binderagents that make up their composition. Fiberglass cord (orsimilar material) is woven into the material matrix and addsburst strength and improves friction and wear properties.Asbestos has not been used in organic friction material sincethe early 1980's. Organic facings are used without exceptionin passenger car and light truck applications. This is sobecause of smooth engagement properties and the relativelight torque loads imposed on the clutch. In general, organicfriction material lacks in performance in wear rate, coefficientof friction (ability to carry torque), and resistance to fade(abuse tolerance) when compared to cera-metallic frictionmaterial. The use of organic friction material in heavy vehicleshas significantly declined over the past decade. Wear life and

    its maximum limit to 1,400 lb-ft. (1892 Nm) of torque in15.5" clutches are the primary reasons.

    Cera-metallic (Ceramic) friction facings are composite mate-rial (copper, sand and other friction modifiers and binderagents). The dry raw materials are mixed in bulk, poured intodie cavities, compressed, sintered in an controlled atmo-sphere, then brazed into a steel backer plate to facilitate rivetattachment to the driven disc. Compared to organic frictionmaterial, cera-metallics have improved performance in theareas of wear rate, resistance to fade (abuse tolerance), andcoefficient of friction (ability to carry torque). It is for this rea-son that cera-metallics make up the vast majority of OEM

    builds.

    Clutch Slippage

    Slippage will cause significant heat build-up and rapid wear ofthe clutch pack. If the clutch pack temperature raises beyondthe facing threshold temperature, the facing may disintegrate.Slippage is the result of loss of clamp load due to lack ofadjustment, loading the clutch beyond its design torque rat-ing, or the clutch has reached the end of its design life. Withthe ability to re-rate an electronic controlled diesel engine, it isquite easy to delivery torque to the clutch beyond its design

    capacity. Before an engine re-rating is performed, confirm thatthe clutch and other drivetrain components are capable of car-rying the increased torque and power.

    Clutch Torque Capacity

    It is imperative to understand the factors that influence fric-tion force because this device transmits torque via friction.The fundamental equations that describes friction is:

    F(f) = uN

    Where F(f) = Force due to friction

    U = Coefficient of friction

    N = Load applied to the friction interface

    T = F(f)r

    Since torque (T) is equal to force friction F(f) multiplied by the

    moment arm (R) (distance from application of force to centeror rotation) must be known. To exactly calculate the momentarm, the mean radius of a clutch (R), integration must be per-formed. However, for clutches in the size range offered byEaton, the calculation can be simplified to:

    (r) = (ID + OD) / 4

    Clutch Wear

    Clutch wear happens because the clutch discs slip relative tothe engine flywheel and the pressure plate surface, and in the

    case of a two plate clutch, the intermediate plate, during vehi-cle launch and gear change. As the clutch disc friction mate-rial and mating flywheel and pressure plate surfaces wear, thegage thickness of the clutch pack decreases (moving thepressure plate closer to the engine flywheel). This movementof the pressure plate causes the pressure spring(s) to elon-gate and loose clamping load. If clamping load is allowed todecrease beyond a critical point, the clutch will be unable tocarry full engine torque and slip.

    Cover Assembly

    The cover assembly, constructed of either stamped steel orcast iron, is bolted to the flywheel. It contains the pressureplate, which is fitted to the cover with pressure springs. It alsocontains the release bearing and levers, which move the pres-sure plate back and forth, thereby making or breaking contactwith the disc assembly.

    General Information

    Factors that Effect Clutch Performance

    Excessive slipping is the major cause of clutch failure.Extreme operating temperatures can cause the clutch to failbecause the heat generated between the flywheel, drivendiscs, intermediate plate, and pressure plate is high enough tocause the metal to flow and the friction material to bedestroyed.

    An improperly adjusted or slipping clutch will produce suffi-cient heat to rapidly burn up.

    There are many factors which have significant impact onclutch life:

    Application (torque capacity)

    GCW/Weight

    Number of starts per day

    Maintenance/Adjustment

    1. Starting the Vehicle in the Proper Gear -The cor-rect gear will allow you to start the vehicle with yourfoot off the throttle.

    2. Gear Shifting Techniques - Many drivers upshiftinto the next gear or even skip-shift into a highergear before the vehicle has reached the properspeed. This type of shifting is almost as damaging asstarting off in a gear that is too high, since theengine speed and vehicle speeds are too far apart,

    requiring the clutch to absorb the speed differenceas heat.

    3. Excessive Vehicle Overload or Overloading theClutch - Clutches are designed and recommendedfor specific vehicle applications and loads. Theselimitations should not be exceeded. Excessive orextreme overloading is not only damaging to theclutch but to the entire vehicle powertrain as well. Ifthe total gear reduction in the powertrain is not suffi-cient to handle excessive overloads, the clutch willsuffer, since it is forced to pick up the load at ahigher speed differential.

    4. Do Not Ride the Clutch Pedal - Riding the clutch isvery destructive to the clutch since a partial clutchengagement permits slippage and excessive heat.Riding the clutch pedal will also put a constant thrustload on the release bearing, which can thin out thelubricant and also cause excessive wear on the pads.Release bearing failures can often be attributed tothis type of operation.

    5. Do Not Slip the Clutch to Hold the Vehicle on anIncline - This procedure uses the clutch to do the job

    normally expected of the wheel brakes. A slippingclutch accumulates heat faster than it can be dissi-pated, resulting in early failures.

    6. Do Not Coast with the Clutch Released and Trans-mission in Gear - This procedure can cause highdriven disc RPM through multiplication of ratiosfrom the final drive and transmission. It can result inthrowing the facing off the clutch discs. Drivendisc speeds of over 10,000 RPM have been encoun-tered in such simple procedures as coasting tractorsdown an unloading ramp. While an ample safety fac-tor is provided for normal operation, the burststrength of the facing is limited.

    7. Do Not Engage the Clutch while Coasting -This

    procedure can result in tremendous
