4 Hours To Repair A Heavy-duty Clutch On A Hino 500 | Full Disassembly & Correct Torque Setup

Описание: 4 Hours To Repair A Heavy-duty Clutch On A Hino 500 | Full Disassembly & Correct Torque Setup

In this video repair, we completely overhaul the heavy-duty clutch system on a Hino 500 crane truck that was experiencing serious performance issues under load.

The vehicle showed clear symptoms of clutch slipping, delayed power transfer, vibration during engagement, and a burning smell after operating with heavy lifting equipment. These are critical warning signs in heavy-duty applications, especially for crane trucks where torque delivery must remain stable and precise.

🔧 Why Replacement Was Necessary

After full disassembly, we identified:
Severely worn clutch disc lining below service limit
Heat spots and scoring on the pressure plate surface
Uneven diaphragm spring tension (sun-type pressure plate)
Misalignment causing improper contact surface engagement
Incorrect torque settings from a previous repair

In heavy-duty trucks like the Hino 500, a worn clutch does not just reduce performance — it increases drivetrain stress, causes premature gearbox wear, and can lead to catastrophic failure if ignored.
⚙️ What We Did In This Repair

✔ Full gearbox removal
✔ Complete clutch assembly inspection
✔ Replacement of clutch disc and pressure plate
✔ Flywheel surface inspection and cleaning
✔ Precision torque tightening according to manufacturer specifications
✔ Alignment and engagement calibration
✔ Final operational testing under load conditions

Special attention was given to correct torque setup and alignment, ensuring proper clamp load distribution and smooth engagement. Incorrect torque values or uneven tightening can cause vibration, clutch chatter, and rapid component failure.

This video documents the entire professional process step-by-step, with a focus on mechanical accuracy and real-world heavy-duty repair standards.
