Does someone know the answer on the following questions:

Behind the fly wheel there is a ring nr 11, what does it do?

And is it correct that you need a lot of force to get the bolt 17 properly fixed, because of the ring 11?

Hello Maarten ,

this spring washer is not before the flywheel.
It is between sealing ring and the camp of the crankshaft.
For the loosening of the flywheel into the flywheel turn no three screws Absolutely use a puller

Thanks.
Were it belongs is clear to me, but not why!

Hi Maarten,

the reason for the spring washer (Bild 3 Teil 11) is the axial force of the flywheel and the crankshaft while operating the clutch.
You will always have a certain distance between the backside of the flywheel shaft and the front side of the inner ring of the crankshaft bearing (Teil 4). If there would be no spring element, there is the risk of an axial movement of the crankshaft pin inside the inner ring of the mentioned bearing.
The spring washer forces the inner bearing ring to be closest to the shaft of the crankshaft pin (mounting position).

Greetings,
Daniel
