ABSTRACT:
A control for a heavy vehicle clutch wherein control members are moved rearwardly away from an engine to disengage a clutch from an engine and engage a clutch brake disc. A pair of co-acting multiple actuators are independently mounted at fixed locations on sides of a bell housing which encloses the clutch. The actuators are spaced apart from a longitudinal axis of the clutch and produce a resultant force which is substantially collinear with the longitudinal axis of the clutch. The actuators have outward extendable push rods which move rearwardly when a foot pedal is depressed to disengage a clutch and move forwardly when the pedal is disengaged to engage the clutch. The push rods engage a movable member which is centered on the axis of the clutch having an outer side portion for restraining the clutch brake disc from rotating when the clutch is disengaged.
