Coupling

Coupling consists of a basket of coupling with a press disk, the conducted disk and system of the drive. Press and conducted disks are placed on a flywheel.

In the included state press the disk presses the conducted disk under the influence of a diaphragm spring to a flywheel and closes a kinematic chain between the engine and the transmission.

In a case of the transmission there is a coupling switching off fork. On it the unattended release bearing which at switching off of coupling nestles on a press disk fastens.

The coupling drive on all petrol models with the forward drive to 9/89 g the issue and all models the versatile person is carried out through a cable. All-wheel drive and diesel options, and also all cars from 10/89 g of the issue (except the versatile person) have the hydraulic drive of coupling. The piston of the working cylinder of hydraulic system adjoins to a fork of switching off of coupling. When squeezing a pedal of coupling through a piston rod in the main cylinder pressure which is transferred on the hydraulic pipeline to the working cylinder is created. The piston of the working cylinder through a fork presses the release bearing to a spring of a press disk and takes away it a little. At the expense of it the kept disk between a flywheel and a press disk is released, and the kinematic chain between the engine and the transmission is disconnected. The hydraulic system is filled with brake fluid which is filled in through the general compensation tank (depending on model also the separate tank can be installed).

Coupling from 10/89 g of the issue.
