-
Insert dial gauge -A- and zero with a preload of 1 mm. Move drive pinion up and down. Read play at dial gauge and note (example: 0.93 mm).
Determining shims
The specified bearing preload is achieved if the reading (0.93 mm), the preload of the bearings 0.12 mm and the amount for compression 0.10 mm are
deducted from the 2 x 1.5 mm thick shims.
Example:
-
Remove output gear. Determine size of shim on basis of table and fit onto drive pinion.
-
Re-install output gear, tighten hex nut to 250 Nm and secure with drift.
