Adjusting The Friction Clutch - Reely Stagger 4RW RtR Notice D'emploi

e) Adjusting the friction clutch
The friction clutch protects the gears against overload (e.g. on non-slip surfaces).
In addition, adjusting the friction clutch correctly prevents the vehicle from overturning due to the brushless engine's
high torque.
The manufacturer has configured the optimal setting, therefore you do not normally need to make any
changes.
However, very frequent start-ups with full power on a surface with good grip can cause the slip clutch linings to wear
off over time, whereby an adjustment of the slip clutch may possibly be required. Furthermore, professional operators
can adjust the friction clutch based on the preferred starting behaviour on a specific surface.
To adjust the clutch, proceed as follows:
Pull out the two clips (A), then remove the dust cover (B).
The friction clutch can be adjusted by turning the hex nut
(C).
Turn the hex nut clockwise (when viewed from the rear of
the vehicle) to increase the drive power to the gearbox, or
anticlockwise to decrease the power transmission.
If the friction clutch is too tight, the maximum
drive power will be transmitted and the clutch
will not function.
This may damage the differential and the ve-
hicle may overturn on non-slip surfaces due to
the high torque from the brushless engine.
If the friction clutch is too "soft", this places
significant wear on the friction clutch. It also
affects acceleration and may prevent the vehi-
cle from moving (due to spinning of the friction
clutch).
Adjust the clutch in very small steps (max. 1/4
turn) and check how the vehicle responds.
Make a note of each change so that you can
revert to the previous setting if necessary.
