DISASSEMBLY

1. REMOVE PRESSURE PLATE
a. Using SST and a socket wrench, remove the shaft bolt.
Torque: 13.2 N.m (135 kgf.cm, 9 ft.lbf)
SST 07112-76060

b. Install SST on the pressure plate.
SST 07112-66040

c. Using SST and socket wrench, remove the pressure plate.
SST 07112-66040, 07112-76060

d. Remove the shims from the pressure plate.

2. REMOVE ROTOR
a. Using SST, remove the snap ring.
SST 95994-10020

NOTE:
At the time of reassembly, please refer to the following Item.
The snap ring should be installed so that beveled side faces up.

b. Using a plastic hammer, tap the rotor off the shaft.
NOTE: Be careful not to damage the pulley when tapping on the rotor.

3. REMOVE STATOR
a. Disconnect the stator lead wire from the compressor housing.

b. Using SST, remove the snap ring.
SST 95994-10020

NOTE:
At the time of reassembly, please refer to the following item.
The snap ring should be installed so that Its beveled side faces up.

c. Remove the stator.
REASSEMBLY
Reassembly is in the reverse order of disassembly.

AFTER REASSEMBLY, CHECK MAGNETIC CLUTCH CLEARANCE
a. Set the dial indicator to the pressure plate of the magnetic clutch.
b. Connect the magnetic clutch lead wire to the positive (+) terminal of the battery.
c. Check the clearance between the pressure plate and rotor when connecting the negative (-) terminal to the battery.
Standard clearance:
0.5 ± 0.15 mm (0.020 ± 0.0059 in.)
If the clearance is not within the standard clearance, adjust the clearance using shims to obtain the standard clearance.
Shim thickness:
0.1 mm (0.004 in.)
0.3 mm (0.012 in.)
0.5 mm (0.020 in.)

When to See a Mechanic
Stop DIY work and contact a certified mechanic immediately if any of the following apply:
- β’ You smell fuel, burning insulation, or see smoke.
- β’ Brakes feel soft, pull hard to one side, or make grinding noises.
- β’ The engine overheats, stalls repeatedly, or misfires under load.
- β’ You are missing required tools, torque specs, or safe lifting equipment.
- β’ You are not confident in the next step or safety outcome.
