4.2.3 Shaft Assembly – RTP30
- Install front bearing (24) to shaft (9 or 10).
- Install o-rings (26 and 25), to shafts (9 or 10) in the appropriate grooves.
Lightly lubricate all o-rings with a compatible lubricant.
- Install the gear (14) over the o-rings (26) and secure with retaining bolts
(23). It is recommended that the screws be aligned at the centre of the
slots provided to give an equal amount of adjustment in either direction.
They should also not be tightened to the correct torque at this
point, as adjustment to the timing may still be required.
- Install rear bearing (19).
- Install the shaft assemblies into the gearbox (16) so that the cone and
cup halves of the front bearing (24) are now one unit.
- Assemble the endplate by installing o-ring (3) and place a nominal
amount (0.05 mm) of shim (73) under the rear bearing cups (19). Do not
install the rear lip seal (11) until the bearing pre-load has been set.
The lips may give a false rolling torque reading as well as
increasing the risk of damage during assembly.
- Install endplate assembly onto the gearbox (16) locating on dowel (60).
