What is the second adjustment to be performed when setting a double disc angle spring clutch?

When setting a double disc angle spring clutch, the second adjustment to be performed is the clutch brake. The purpose of the clutch brake is to ensure that the clutch disengages effectively and to prevent grinding of the gears when the transmission is shifted. Proper adjustment of the clutch brake helps in achieving smoother operation and prolongs the lifespan of the transmission components.

This adjustment typically follows the initial steps of checking the overall clutch mechanism and ensures that when the clutch pedal is depressed, the brake engages correctly. Correctly setting the clutch brake can significantly reduce the chance of clutch slippage and ensures the drivetrain operates efficiently. Proper sequence and adjustments are important in clutch setup to minimize wear and potential damage.

Other adjustments like rolling torque, linkage length, and upper pedal stop are also important but may either come earlier or serve a different function in the overall clutch setup process. These factors interact to affect the performance of the clutch as a whole, but the clutch brake specifically focuses on the engagement and disengagement functionality.
