1. If there are metal shavings in transmission oil pan, drain automatic transmission fluid from start-up clutch through a clean cloth.
  If there are metal shavings in the cloth: replace the start-up clutch as any remaining metal shavings will damage the transmission.

Place parallel gauge (01) on flange of transmission housing.
Using depth gauge, measure difference dimension (D1) between parallel gauge (01) and bolt flange of start-up clutch.
Add measured difference dimension (D1) and specified distance dimension (D2) together.
If the start-up clutch is inserted correctly, the sum (D1 + D2) corresponds to the thickness (D3 = 20 mm) of the parallel gauge (01): D1 + D2 = D3.

If D1+ D2 =/= D3: remove and insert the start-up clutch again and check whether it is seated correctly.
Detach grab handles (065) from start-up clutch.
