ABSTRACT:
A device for automatically monitoring the clearance between a release bearing and release levers of a conventional clutch to thereby also monitor wear of the clutch and/or to monitor the clutch adjustment. The clutch has a clutch lever, and a clutch pedal is connected to the clutch lever by a linkage system. The monitoring device includes one member fixed to a clutch linkage system and another member operably connected to the clutch lever. The two members move relative to one another. The device includes an electric switch which is closed when the clutch lever has moved a pre-determined distance due to wear in the clutch and thus has moved the first and second members relative to one another. The switch, when closed, energizes a suitable signal lamp to signal wear of the clutch.
