When performing a procedure of aligning the release levers, what is the main focus of the process?

The main focus of aligning the release levers is to ensure proper function and engagement of the clutch assembly. The release levers play a crucial role in disengaging the clutch by applying pressure against the release bearing when the clutch pedal is pressed. If these levers are not properly aligned, it can cause uneven wear, clutch chatter, or even complete failure to disengage the clutch. This alignment ensures that the force is evenly distributed across the clutch diaphragm spring, enabling smooth operation and effective engagement and disengagement of the clutch.

Proper alignment of the release levers is essential for achieving a reliable and functional clutch system, thereby enhancing performance and reducing the risk of premature failure or damage to the components.
