CONT

Pour éviter les chocs de crabots ou les changements trop lents, il est nécessaire de respecter une garde d'embrayage minimale, mais sans excès : la course de la fourchette d'embrayage après le point de contact de l'embrayage en fin de course de débrayage du piston du cylindre récepteur. Cette garde est réglée par 1,5 à 2 tours de la tige de la fourchette d'embrayage. Le réglage effectué, il suffit de compenser l'usure lente du disque d'embrayage.
