t  Torque wrench kit -SAT 8010-, see equivalent → Anchor Installation is carried out in reverse order. However, the following important steps must be observed:   Note t  Always renew self locking nuts and bolts t  Renew O-rings, seals, gaskets and bolts which are tightened by turning through a specified angle. t  Secure all hose connections with the correct type of hose clips (same as original equipment) → Electronic parts catalogue. t  All cable ties which were opened or cut during removal must be renewed at the same points. t  Clean the cogs of the input shaft and the teeth of the speed damper, eliminate corrosion and apply a very fine layer of lubricating grease to the cogs (assignment → Electronic spare Spare parts catalogue). It is essential to remove excess grease. –  If no dowel sleeves for centralising engine/gearbox are in the cylinder block, install dowel sleeves.

–  There are brackets on the front side of the gearbox that have been removed with certain versions. These brackets must be mounted on the new gearbox.

–  If this has not already been done: renew the needle bearing of the crankshaft → Rep. gr.13.   Note When the needle bearing on the crankshaft is damaged, the gears cannot be switched properly any more as the clutch supports this.

–  Ensure that intermediate plate is connected to sealing flange -arrow A- and pushed onto dowel sleeves -arrow B-. –  Insert the selector lever control cable as far as possible into the control cable.   Caution Risk of damage to selector lever cable. t  Carefully guide selector lever cable into cable support bracket when lifting gearbox. t  Do not bend or kink the selector lever cable. It must be possible to position the engine and gearbox by hand so that the connecting flanges of both are contacted fully. –  Align the bearing so that the engine and gearbox are positioned. –  When necessary, turn the crankshaft a little.

–  Take great care with both breathing flaps, especially after fitting the starter.

–  The circlip of the selector lever cable must be replaced. A lock washer, which was removed, never insert again. It could be damaged if it no longer has the necessary inner tension. –  Always adjust the selector lever cable → Chapter.
