The 173-mm-long declutch tube on this electromechanical pump disengages 5-to 100-ml syringes from the unit's transmission. |
To get into first gear, like any of the 5 or 6 gears on a car, you must first declutch. |
The artificer in charge of the motors acted promptly on the order to declutch and then reverse. |
When he realized that the RADs were not responding to his commands, the master brought both joysticks to the declutch position. |
That is why, each time you want to change gear, you have to declutch and then, once the new gear is in place, to let out the clutch, to connect the engine to the wheels again. |
For example, there are systems that automatically declutch and isolate an engine should it experience a serious fault. |
