GEARBOX ASSEMBLY 

 

Place the rotor (1.1) on a flat surface. Lubricate the front and rear bearing areas of the drive and 

idle  shafts  with  grease.  Insert  the  shafts  into  the  rotor  splines,  for  support.  Heat  the  front 

bearing to 250

o

F. Place the bearing over the shaft, after the bearing cooled. 

 

Place the gearbox over the shafts. 

 

Position the gearbox with wet end up. Insert the front bearing with shaft perpendicularly to the 

gearbox.  There  should  be  a  tight  sliding  fit  between  the  gearbox  and  the  bearing  outer rings. 

Press or soft hammer could be used. 

 

Place the front bearing and tightened. 

 

Rear bearing assemblies insert into the rear cover. There should be tight sliding fit. 
 

Heat  the  inner ring  of  the  rear bearing  to  250

o

F.  Place  the  inner ring  over the  shafts  with the 

flange end sliding over the shaft first. 

 

Lubricate the gear area of the shaft and the face of the lock washer, with grease 

 

Position both shaft gear keys to the 12:00 position. 

 

Place the gear, lock washer (3.3) and lock nut (3.3) onto the shafts and hand tighten. 

 

After the gears are installed, turn the shafts to make sure they turn freely and that the rotors 

(1.1) are timed correctly. 

 

Use a spanner wrench to tighten the gear lock nut (3.3) on the drive shaft. You can install the 

rotors to hold the shafts in place while you tighten the nut. 

 

Measure  rolling torque  with no  load on  bearing.  Set  the  torque  wrench  to zero  while rotating, 

this will remove the load caused by the lip seal. 

 

The  bearing  locknut  should  be  tightened  until  the  rolling  torque  on  the  shaft  measures  the 

values in the following table. 

 

Tighten the locknut (3.3) on the idle shaft, following the previous steps. 

 

Measure the shaft endplay to be sure it is zero. If the endplay is not zero, repeat the tightening 

steps. To repeat these steps, the locknut (3.3) will have  to be backed off and the bearing will 

have to be tapped to remove the loadings. 

 

Install the liquid gasket to rear cover quad ring (4.12) and mount the rear cover(1.4) assembly 

over the drive shaft extension onto the gearbox
