WAZER Pro Clutch Condition Check

The Clutch system transmits the torque from the AC motor into the High Pressure Pump Shaft, providing energy for the pressurization. If the clutch is not in good condition, the torque transmission will be less efficient; the pressure plate and pulleys may overheat; sharp squeaking noise will be generated. Inspecting the clutch before any issue arises is recommended.


Required Tools

  • Philips screw driver

  • flashlight /torch (recommended)


Procedure

Output check.

1. Using the Philips screw driver to open the lower left stress skin

2. Go to “setup and maintenance” > “input and output” > ”output” > “clutch”

3. Listen carefully to the clicking sound when the clutch electric coil engages the pressure plate and disengages.

Response check

1. Go to “setup and maintenance” > "maintenance" > “nozzle purge”

2. Look at the pressure gauge

3. Once the clutch engages the pressure should be able to climb very quickly. 

4. Make sure there is no delay in the pressure climb

Sound check

1. Conduct the nozzle purge again

2. Listen carefully to the sound of the moment when clutch engages and disengages.

3. A quick and sharp squeaking noise is acceptable

4. If a prolonged (more than 1 second) of grinding noise is emitted, the friction surface of the pulley or the pressure plate is not in good condition.
