Adjust the input shaft when one of the following elements have been replaced: l  Gearbox casing l  Clutch housing l  Input shaft l  Input shaft roller bearings Refer to Adjustment chart → Chapter.

–  Fit the outer track of the input shaft roller bearings into the clutch housing, without the shim. –  Locate the input shaft in its housing in the gearbox casing.   Note! In gearboxes manufactured from 07.97, except those bearing the letters DQW, a 1 mm shim is fitted to the gearbox casing for the outer track of the roller bearing. Check that the shim is fitted. –  Fit the clutch housing onto the gearbox casing and tighten the securing bolts to 25 Nm.

–  Fit tool -T20020- on the gearbox casing with a dial gauge. Locate the end of the dial gauge on the input shaft. –  Turn the input shaft to settle the roller bearings. –  Adjust the dial gauge to “0” with a pre-tension of 1 mm.   Note! The adjustment to “0” of the dial gauge must be repeated every time the measurement is carried out. Otherwise the dial gauge will not return to the initial position. –  From the lower end of the gearbox, press the input shaft in the direction of the dial gauge. –  Take note of the measurement obtained (e.g. 1.21 mm).   Note! The dial gauge does not return to its initial position. –  Determine the thickness of the washer with the table → Anchor. Shim table

–  Remove the bolts that secure both casings and separate the clutch housing. –  Separate the input shaft.

–  Remove the outer track of the roller bearing with tool -T20140-. –  Procedure for extracting the outer track → Anchor.

–  Fit the outer track of the roller bearing in the clutch housing with the correct shim (in this case 1.225 mm). –  Locate the input shaft in its housing in the gearbox casing. –  Fit the clutch housing onto the gearbox casing and tighten the bolts to 25 Nm. –  Carry out a measurement → Anchor. Measurement

–  Fit tool -T20020- on the gearbox casing with a dial gauge. Locate the end of the dial gauge on the input shaft. –  Turn the input shaft to settle the roller bearings. –  Adjust the dial gauge to “0” with a pre-tension of 1 mm. –  From the lower end of the gearbox, press the input shaft in the direction of the dial gauge -arrow-. –  The bearing play should be min. 0.01 ... max. 0.10 mm.   Note! If no play can be measured, but the input shaft is free and can turn easily, the adjustment is correct.
