The clutch transmits torque from the engine to the gearbox. The clutch includes a driven (friction) disk and a pressure plate, which is attached to the flywheel with bolts.

When the clutch is engaged (the clutch pedal is depressed), the power flow between the engine and the gearbox is interrupted. This means that when the clutch is not engaged, it is in the engaged (not free) state. Once the pedal is depressed (engaged), the clutch is disengaged (disengaged).
