Install compression tool see 9995662 , together with the conversion kit on the clutch. The tool is modified as described in the tool bulletin.

Ensure that the hooks grip correctly, although without clamping the adjuster springs.

Centre the compression tool and tighten the screw to light contact against the diaphragm spring. At the same time, check that the hooks on the tool are in position.

Applies only to clutches without self adjustment: 

Note the position of the handle with slots. Then screw in by not more than two turns  .

Remove the clutch and clutch driven plate 

Applies only to certain engine versions with self adjusting clutches: 

Compress the clutch so that the automatic adjuster is not under load.

If the clutch is worn, the counterhold turns the automatic adjustment to the original position marking.

The marking consists of two stamped arrows.

Then continue to screw in the compression tool until the diaphragm spring has pressed the pressure plate to a free position.

A click can be heard when the clutch pressure plate snaps out.

Remove the clutch and clutch driven plate
