The wrap spring is one of the important parts of the washing machine clutch. If the wrap spring breaks, the washing machine can wash normally, but the pulley cannot drive the outer shaft of the clutch during dehydration, which makes the washing machine unable to spin dry the clothes. The shape of the holding spring is basically the same, the difference is that one end has a hook and the other does not have a hook.
When the wrap spring is installed in the clutch of the washing machine, there is a small hook at one end. Hook it into a small hole on the plastic gear, then turn the plastic gear and the square wire wrap back counterclockwise, and tighten the nut. Up. The function of the wrap spring is to prevent reversal and to prevent the dehydration barrel from rotating, so the position of the wrap spring is sleeved on the rotating shaft.
Under normal circumstances, the holding spring needs to be regularly lubricated. Butter can be added, but vegetable oil or motor oil cannot be added. This will cause slippage. Generally, there is a lot of butter in this position in the clutch of a new washing machine, so there is no need to add it. Washing machine maintenance personnel generally do not refuel, and replace them with new springs.
The fixing screws and nuts on the clutch of all washing machines are basically clockwise for tightening, and counterclockwise for loosening. Everyone said that clockwise is orthodontic, and counterclockwise is reversed. Remove the connecting bolt between the clutch cover and the pulley from the pulley, and remove the clutch cover and pressure plate assembly from the pulley.
If the bolts are equipped with balance weights, please mark the clutch cover and balance weights so that they can be reassembled to avoid damage to the dynamic balance of the crankshaft assembly. Put the clutch cover and pressure plate assembly on the press, and use parts with a thickness greater than 9.2mm as the lower part of the pressure plate (new structure 9.7 mm). The circular gasket with an outer diameter of less than φ325 mm is set to a pressure of 1.5 tons or more.
Remove the lock nut and adjusting nut of the release lever adjusting screw, remove the bolt on the bolt seat of the drive plate, slowly loosen the pressure of the press, after the pressure is completely released, the clutch pulley and cover assembly are completely disassembled, cleaned and inspected All parts.
