Inspection
1. Remove any nicks and burrs from all parts with
emery cloth.
CAUTION
Use eye protection such as goggles when using
compressed air.
2. Clean all parts with solvent. Dry all parts with com-
pressed air.
3. Inspect drive gears and idler gears for the following
(Fig. 94):
A. Gearshaftsshouldbefreeofroughsurfacesand
excessivewearatbushingpointsandsealingareas.
Scoring, rough surfaces or wear ongear shafts indi-
cates need for replacement.
B. Gear teeth should be free of excessive scoring
and wear. Any broken or nicked gear teeth must be
replaced.
C. Inspect gear face edge for sharpness. Sharp
edges of gears will mill into wear plates and, thus,
must be replaced.
4. Inspect wear plates for the following:
A. Bearingareasshouldnothaveexcessivewearor
scoring.
B. Faceofwearplates thatare incontactwith gears
should be free of wear, roughness or scoring.
C. Thickness of wear plates should be equal.
