(Determine adjustment shim for output shaft)

A new output shaft adjustment is required when the following components have been replaced:

• Transmission housing

• Clutch housing

• Output shaft 1st to 4th gear or

• Tapered roller bearing for output shaft

Adjustment overview, refer to => [ Adjustment Overview ] Adjustment Overview.

Requirements

• Sealing surfaces of the clutch and transmission housings must be cleaned of sealant.

• For the measurement, only install the output shaft to be measured.

- Press the tapered roller bearing outer race with a 1.70 mm adjustment shim into the transmission housing. Support the transmission housing directly beneath the bearing mount using the (2050).

- Set the complete output shaft for 1st to 4th gears into the clutch housing.

- Install the transmission housing and tighten the bolts - A - as well as - B - to specification in a diagonal sequence.

- Install the measuring tools and secure them to the clutch housing with a bolt - arrow -.

- Set the gauge (3 mm measuring range) to "0" with 1 mm preload.

- Loosen the bolts for the clutch housing to transmission housing in a diagonal sequence until the bolts clear the transmission housing and output shaft.

- Read the measured value on the dial indicator and note (example: 0.14 mm).

• The measured value will not be displayed when loosening the bolts that connect the clutch housing to the transmission housing.

• Install either the 1.95 mm adjusting shim or the 2.20 mm adjusting shim for the measuring.

Determining Shim Thickness

The required bearing tension is reached as follows:

The specified bearing preload is reached when determined measured value (0.14 mm) is subtracted from inserted adjustment shim (1.70 mm).

A constant figure of (0.40 mm) is added to the reading.

Example

- Determine thickness of adjustment shim according to table. Refer to => [ Adjustment Shim Table ].

- Remove the transmission housing and pull the tapered roller bearing outer race from the transmission housing.

A Support, for example, (22/2)
B Internal puller 46 to 58 mm, for example, (21/7)

- Remove the inserted adjustment shim (1.70 mm thick) from the transmission housing.

Adjustment Shim Table

Tolerance variations make it possible to find the exact shim thickness required.

- Press in the tapered roller bearing outer race with the determined shim (1.75 mm in example). Support the transmission housing directly beneath the bearing mount using the (2050).

Checking Measurement

• Determined the adjustment shim installed.

- Install the measuring tools and secure to the clutch housing with the bolt - arrow -.
