Hydraulic release and self- adjusting cable systems use constant contact release bearings with zero free play. Excessive free play causes incomplete release and insufficient free play causes slipping.

As disc friction material wears, the pressure plate moves closer to the flywheel, and the diaphragm spring fingers pivot outward toward the transmission. This causes a gradual decrease in the distance between the release bearing and the diaphragm fingers. Due to this normal wear in the clutch system, release systems that provide for external free-play adjustment must be checked and adjusted periodically.
