ACG Tips on Enhancing Clutch Life

Clutch is an important mediator which transmits the power developed in the engine to the drive lines. Any malfunction of the clutch related components affects the vehicle performance in terms of pulling and mileage. By implementing the following tips may enhance the overall vehicle performance of the vehicle, apart from low maintenance and enhanced operational profit to the fleet owners.
1. Select proper gear which is required to pull the load. Over selection or under selection of Gears will strain the clutch components very much and reduces its life.
2. Always check for the oil leakage through the oil seals of the gear box side which faces the clutch mechanism (in case of dry clutch). The leakage may cause oil or grease entering the clutch mechanism which results in clutch slippage and loss of power.
