This clamping force can be released or applied by operating the clutch pedal to allow the clutch to be engaged and disengaged. Hydraulic pressure applied to a slave cylinder is used to move the release fork and disengage the clutch. . HINT: Cable type clutch There are also cable type clutches that connect the clutch pedal and the release fork by cable. |
