If the tool is disassembled for other repairs, visually inspect the clutch for signs of excessive wear, scoring, or damage.
Check for any unusual play or looseness in the clutch assembly.
Ensure the area around the clutch is free from excessive dust, metal shavings, or grease buildup, which can impede its function.
