Clutch pedal (Mazda BT-50 (1))

Checking and adjusting

1. Check the clutch pedal travel.

Press the clutch pedal and measure the pedal travel.

• Pedal travel: 152 mm

If necessary, adjust the pedal travel. Loosen the lock nut (A) and tighten/unscrew the switch (B) on the clutch pedal to make the adjustment.

2. Lightly press the clutch pedal with your hand until you feel resistance to pressing, and measure the free travel of the clutch pedal.

• Clutch pedal free travel - 5-15 mm
• Free travel of the pushing rod - 0.1-3.5 mm

If the measured distance is not within the standard, make adjustments.



a) Loosen lock nut "C".

b) Adjust the clearance by rotating the rod "D".



c) Tighten lock nut "C".

• Tightening torque: 12-17 Nm

If the measured value of the pedal free play does not correspond to the nominal value, loosen the lock nut "C" and readjust.

3. Check the clutch release stroke.

a) Apply the parking brake and place wheel chocks under the wheels.

b) Start the engine at idle speed.

c) Without pressing the clutch pedal, slowly move the gear shift lever toward the reverse gear position until the sound of gear contact is heard.

d) Gradually depress the clutch pedal and measure the pedal travel (A) from the point where the gear noise disappears (switch-off point), until the pedal is not pressed.

• Nominal distance "A" - 110-125 mm

Note: If the measured distance does not correspond to the nominal one, bleed the clutch hydraulic drive.
