Determine pressure collar setting for new ring gear
• |
Calculate the difference between the averages
– |
Subtract average noted down for old ring gear from average
noted down for new ring gear
Note: If the difference
exceeds +0.02/-0.06mm, the pressure collar must be adjusted. If it
is less, the old shims can be re-used.
Note: The table below
is a specimen calculation. You can enter the actual measurement
results in the blank column on the right of the printout and
perform the calculation there.

Insert 2x shim (1, 4)
Important: Make sure that the
correct shims are fitted on the clutch housing side and the
transmission housing side
|
• |
If necessary, reset pressure collar
– |
Determine the thickness of the new shims and insert them
Note: If the difference
between the dimensions is positive, choose a shim (4) that is the
same dimension thicker than the old one. If the difference is
negative, a correspondingly thinner shim must be used. The total
thickness of both shims must remain constant as this determines the
prestressing of the differential gear tapered roller bearing.
Therefore if a thicker shim (4) is used on the transmission housing
side, fit a clutch housing side shim (1) that is thinner by the
same amount. If a thinner shim is used on the transmission housing
side a correspondingly thicker shim must be installed on the clutch
housing side.
Note: The shims can be
obtained from "Aftersales". The thickness of the shims (2) must be
determined with a micrometer (3) as there is no marking on them
Note: The table below
contains a few examples from the range of shims that can be
supplied. When adjusting, the shims must be selected to achieve the
smallest tolerance possible. Undamaged used shims can be
re-used.
