    1. Check the clutch release point.
      1. Pull the parking brake lever and install wheel chocks.
      2. Start the engine and run it at idle.
      3. Without depressing the clutch pedal, slowly move the shift lever into reverse until the gears contact.

        Standard distance: 

        25 mm (0.984 in.) or more (from pedal stroke end position to release point) 

        If the distance is not as specified, perform the following procedure:

        • Check the pedal height.
        • Check the push rod play and pedal free play.
        • Bleed the clutch line.
        • Check the clutch cover and disc.
