AI caption · Photo 143 of 412

This page, labeled 'CLUTCH UNIT' (page CL-4, figure reference SCL158), is an exploded-view service diagram of a manual transmission clutch assembly, showing the flywheel, clutch disc, clutch cover (pressure plate), and clutch cover bolts. Key service information includes: the clutch cover bolt torque specification of 22-29 N·m (2.2-3.0 kg-m, 16-22 ft-lb); a footnote (*1) applying to the flywheel and clutch cover stating that slight burn or discoloration of the contact surface with the clutch disc can be corrected by polishing with emery paper; and clutch disc handling cautions — do not clean the disc in solvent, and when installing be careful that grease applied to the main drive shaft does not adhere to the clutch disc. A lubrication symbol indicates lithium-based grease including molybdenum disulphide should be applied to the transmission input (main drive) shaft splines. A safety WARNING instructs the technician to clean away clutch disc dust using a dust collector after cleaning with a cloth and never to use compressed air (asbestos-type dust hazard). Some mirrored bleed-through text from the reverse page (apparent pedal free play specifications) is faintly visible but not part of this page. The document is undated on this page but matches Nissan factory service manual formatting.
