Abstract: A throw-out lever assembly for use in a clutch mechanism of a motor vehicle and including a support and a fulcrum assembly mounted on the support. A throw-out lever is operably connected to the fulcrum assembly being adapted at one end for engagement with a clutch actuator and at its opposite end for engagement with a throw-out bearing of the clutch assembly. The fulcrum assembly includes a fulcrum member for pivotally engaging the throw-out lever between its ends. The fulcrum member is adjustably mounted on the support for selectively positioning the throw-out lever in a selected angular orientation with respect to the throw-out bearing for applying an optimum force on the throw-out bearing to disengage the clutch mechanism upon actuation of the clutch actuator.
