MAINSHAFT END PLAY





^ When adjusting mainshaft end play, select adjusting shim for mainshaft rear bearing. To select adjusting shim, measure clearance "M" between transaxle case and mainshaft rear bearing.
^ Calculate dimension "P" (thickness of adjusting shim) using the procedure to satisfy specification of end play for mainshaft rear bearing.
End play: 0 - 0.06 mm (0 - 0.0024 inch)
Dimension "P" = "M" - End play
"P": Thickness of adjusting shim
"M": Distance between mainshaft rear bearing and transaxle case
