If the gap is incorrect, remove the shaft assembly and re-shim until the correct clearance is obtained.

When the clearance is correct, fit the 0 ring seal and fit the assembly to the casing.
-
Fit and tighten the securing bolts.
-
Fit a magnetic dial gauge to the output flange and measure the end float (Fig 2).

If the end float is outside the given tolerances, the output shaft bearing must be replaced.

Reconnect the output shaft.
