    Answer: A

    Technician A only

    Explanation:

    On a cable-operated clutch, the adjustment is made at the cable end. The clearance is usually measured either at the operating lever or at the pedal.

    To perform efficiently, the clutch needs the right amount of play in the linkage between the foot pedal and the clutch operating lever

    Anything less than the correct amount of free play (or clearance) will result in clutch slip, because the pressure plate will be unable to exert its full pressure on the friction plate.

    Failure to cure this fault will quickly lead to a burned-out friction plate, and possibly a ruined pressure plate.
