Abstract
Oil pressure detecting meansdetects a clutch oil pressure in driving a clutch in its engaging direction against a biasing force of a return springfor normally disengaging the clutch. Stroke end detecting meansdetects that the clutch has reached a stroke end position where clutch disks are in contact with each other when the amount of change in clutch oil pressure becomes larger than a predetermined value. Clutch control correction amount calculating meanscalculates a work load generated in the return springaccording to the clutch oil pressure detected at the stroke end position and then calculates a control correction amount for the clutch according to the difference between the work load calculated above and a predetermined reference value.
