ASSEMBLY
Assembly is essentially the reverse of disassem-
bly procedures. However pay particular attention
to the following.
2,3,6, Bearing and Crankshaft
Apply Loctite 767 Anti-Seize on part of crankshaft
where bearing fits.
Prior to installation, place bearings into a container
filled with oil, previously heated to 75°C (167°F).
This will expand bearing and ease installation.
Or, as an alternate method, apply heat with a pro-
pane torch. Lay bearing on a steel plate, then heat
plate through bearing bore until smoke is noticed
from bearing. Install bearing carefully on crank-
shaft.
CAUTION : Immediately stop heating as
soon as smoke is noticed. Overheating
bearing will melt plastic cage. Practice with
used bearings on first try.
1. Bearing against a steel plate
2. Propane torch
3. Heat plate through bearing bore
To properly locate outer PTO bearing, temporarily
install distance gauge (P / N 290 876 827 for 717
engine and 290 876 828 for 787 engine) against
inner bearing. Slide outer bearing until stopped by
gauge then remove gauge.
